Maslow is a famous theorist which encompass everything from basic needs to self-actualization in order to demonstrate what motivates people.

4 This theory indicates There are 5 levels of needs All these needs are arranged in a hierarchy Once one level is satisfied, the next level will emerge as the depressed need seeking to be satisfied The physiological and security needs are finite but the needs of higher order are infinite and are likely to be dominant in persons at higher levels in the organization. Maslow suggests that various levels are interdependent and overlapping. MASLOW THEORIES

32 Self actualization needs: desire for personal achievement or mission of his life. Self – actualized persons have frequent occurrence of peak experiences, which are energized moments of profound happiness and harmony. According to Maslow, only a small percentage of the population reaches the level of self- actualization. Self - Actualization LEVEL FIVE :

33 Researchers have proved that there is lack of hierarchical structure of needs as suggested by Maslow. Some people may have deprived of lower level needs but strive for self actualization. There is lack of direct cause and effect relationship between need and behavior. Sometimes peoples are not aware of their own needs. Measurement of satisfaction of needs is not possible. Criticism

37 APPLYING MASLOW'S NEEDS HIERARCHY - BUSINESS MANAGEMENT IMPLICATIONS There are some very important leadership implications to enhance workplace motivation. There are staff motivation opportunities by motivating each employee through their style of management, compensation plans, role definition, and company activities. These are the suggestions used to motivate employees using Maslow need’s hierarchy

44 CONCLUSION The basis of Maslow's motivation theory is that human beings are motivated by unsatisfied needs, and that certain lower factors need to be satisfied before higher needs can be satisfied. According to Maslow, there are general types of needs (physiological, survival, safety, love, and esteem) that must be satisfied before a person can act unselfishly. He called these needs "deficiency needs." As long as we are motivated to satisfy these cravings, we are moving towards growth, toward self-actualization. Satisfying needs is healthy, while preventing gratification makes us sick or act evilly.
