Five needs by Abraham Maslow
Abraham Maslow
Abraham Maslow, an American p_s_y_c_h_o_l_o_g_i_s,t believed that human _m_o_t_iv_a_t_i_o_n_can be understood as a result of a hierarchy of needs: the most basic physiological needs, safety needs, _b_e_lo_n_g_i_n_g__needs, esteem needs and selfactualization needs.
Unit 4
Why People Work?
Warm-up Questions
1.What job do you want to do after graduation?
2. How do you define “a good job”? What are the things you will consider in choosing a career?
When the lower-level needs are met, the motivation to meet the _h_i_g_h_e_r-_l_e_v_e_l _needs becomes active. Furthermore, as an _in_d_i_v_id_u_a_l_progress upward, it becomes more difficult to successfully __fu_l_fi_ll__the needs of each higher level. For this reason Maslow believed that very few people actually reach the level of self-actualization, and it is a __li_fe_l_o_n_g__process for the few who do.
