Abstract: From the perspective of positive psychology, as a starting point to study the relationship between
intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation and basing on the organismic-dialectical meta-theory, American
psychologists Deci and Ryan proposed the self-determination theory. Its arena is the investigation of people’s
inherent growth tendencies and innate psychological needs, as well as for the conditions that foster those pos-
itive processes. It concludes four sub-theories: they are cognitive evaluation theory, organismic integration
theory, causality orientations theory and basic psychological needs theory. According to self-determination
theory, in order to motivate staffs, we must follow the principles: to mobilize intrinsic motivation of em-
ployees as a core, to provide informational and non-controlled supportive environment, to supply the auton-
omy support of management as a basic way, thus, the employees can realize pursuing for self-determination.
