Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs Theory

Needs were categorized as five levels of lower- to higher-order needs.

•Individuals must satisfy lower-order needs before they can satisfy higher order needs.

•Satisfied needs will no longer motivate.

•Motivating a person depends on knowing at what level that person is on the hierarchy.

•Higher-order (internal): social, esteem,

self-actualization
