In Herzberg's theory of work motivation, motivator factors are the key to higher performance. If these factors are not present, however, they do not in and of themselves lead to strong dissatisfaction. Motivator factors are job-centered; they relate directly to the content of the job itself. 1, record 2, English, - motivator%20factor
