Question

Abraham Maslow, Clayton Alderter, and David McClelland have each presented a well known theory regarding the number and types of needs categories, Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Theory presents five categories of needs, whereas Alderfer's ERG Theory collapses Maslow's categories into three. Provide the missing category labels from Maslows theory for the following work scenarios, and answer the related question on Alderfer's theory Maslow's Need Category Work Example Getting along with coworkers and bosses Alderler's ERG Theory Alderfer renamed the need for getting along with coworkers and bosses into the category of needs Getting a promotion for a job well done Securing another position after being let go from a previous job McClelland's Learned Needs Theory argues for a slightly different set of needs that motivate people: afflation, achievement, and the need for power Determine whether each of the following examples describes a person with a high coed for amaton, chevement, or power Need Example As secretary of state, Hillary Clinton wants to change the behavior of nations. Her bid for president of the United States in 2008 was based in part, on her desire to lead others Arturo, a college student, has to achieve the highest grade in the class otherwise, he isn't Satisfied with his work

Answer 1

In Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, getting along with coworkers falls under 'love/belonging,' which is simplified to 'Relatedness' in Alderfer's ERG Theory. Hillary Clinton's actions correspond to a high need for power, and the student's ambition for high grades indicates a high need for achievement in McClelland's Learned Needs Theory.

Step-by-step explanation:

Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is a framework that presents five categories of human needs: physiological, safety, love/belonging, esteem, and self-actualization. In the workplace scenario, the need for getting along with coworkers and bosses fits into Maslow's 'love/belonging' category.

Clayton Alderfer's ERG Theory simplifies this into three categories: Existence, Relatedness, and Growth. According to this theory, the need for getting along with coworkers and bosses falls under the 'Relatedness' category.

David McClelland's Learned Needs Theory identifies three needs that motivate behavior: achievement, affiliation, and power. In the examples given, Hillary Clinton's desire to change the behavior of nations and lead others is indicative of a high need for power, whereas the student, Arturo, who strives for the highest grade, is demonstrating a high need for achievement.
