George McGregor (1960)
The average human being has an inherent dislike of work and will avoid it if he or she can.
Because of their dislike for work, most people must be controlled and threatened before they will work hard enough.
The average human prefers to be directed, dislikes responsibility, is unambiguous, and desires security above everything else.
If a job is satisfying, then the result will be commitment to the organization.
The average person learns under proper conditions not only to accept but to seek responsibility.
Imagination, creativity, and ingenuity can be used to solve work problems by a large number of employees.
