Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Herzberg's theory of motivation divides job factors into two categories: hygiene factors and motivators. Hygiene factors are necessary aspects of a job, but they do not provide job satisfaction. Examples include salary, working conditions, and status. Motivators are factors that provide job satisfaction, such as achievement, recognition, responsibility, and the work itself. Since Nadine is not "money hungry," it is unlikely that status (or the perception of job title or level) is a motivator for her. Therefore, it would not be a satisfier for her according to Herzberg.
