Motivational theories certainly have their time and place. Beyond that, they probably work better for some people than others and the situation and context is obviously relevant. What motivates people obviously depends on their feelings, preference, environment and reactions to what is happening around them. Even so, there are several theories that will be reviewed in this report and they shall be reacted to in terms of how effective they might or could be. Beyond that, there will be a number of examples personal to the author and what has been experienced by that person. To be sure, not all motivational ploys work in all situations and the person doing the motivating and what they bring to the table in terms of experience and reputation certainly matters a great deal in the grand scheme of things. While some motivational theories are generally effective, assuming that this could or would be the case in any given situation is simply not a good thing to do.

While businesses bring in people and managers all of the time for their leadership skills and their emotions, that is simply not enough in certain situations. The leader could and should know the nuts and bolts of what is involved with a job as those leaders will be making the decisions as to who is hired, who is not hired, whether overtime is granted, whether new heads are needed in the first place, whether the current staffing is too much and so forth. If they do not know the job well, it is hard to see how that manager will make those decisions well unless they take in a lot of feedback and observations before making the decision (Benson, 2015). In keeping with the point about transformational leaders, the same thing could be said about Nistorescu and the general topic of communication. That being said, a manager or leader that is good at communicating and fettering out the needed information would perhaps be more open to taking in the proper feedback and opinions before making a decision that will impact a lot of people, perhaps for the worse. Beyond that, there may be cultural or language hurdles to be overcome and a communication-driven leader would be an asset in such a situation (Nistorescu, 2012).
When it comes to the words of Pignatelli, that article focuses on the drivers of…
