Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

The crux of this theory is that workers are motivated to meet the bottom needs before they are moti-vated to meet the need above it. For example, in an organization that is getting ready to lay-off half its work force will not be able to motivate its employees by sponsoring a softball team. Lay-off threatens employee's survival and security needs which are satisfied by their paycheck. Employees will be more motivated to regain their level of satisfaction at the security level than attempt to meet the higher level social need. In other words, you must satisfy your need for food and security before social needs become motivating. Likewise employees will satisfy social and ego needs before self-fulfillment is possible.
