What is the human hierarchy of needs?
A. In the 1940s and 1950s Abraham Maslow developed the Hierarchy of Needs model, which remains valid today for understanding human motivation, management training, and personal development. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs states that we have five levels of needs. We must satisfy each need in turn, beginning with the first and moving up to level five. Only when the lower order needs of physical and emotional well-being are satisfied are we then concerned with the higher order needs of influence and personal development. Conversely, the lower order needs are removed, we are no longer concerned about the maintenance of our higher order needs.
