Question

Margot finally finished her Ph.D. program. Although she has a great and secure teaching job at an urban college, she does not hold a faculty position at a prestigious university. It is obvious to her colleagues that Margot is unsatisfied with her position at work. She constantly gives coworkers subtle reminders of her superior academic credentials and only participates in work activities where she will assume a leadership role. Looking at Margot's situation using Maslow's hierarchy of needs, which of the following needs are unmet

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Maslow’s hierarchy of needs as represented by a pyramid depicts different stages of needs that human tend to satisfy, which forms the basis upon which behaviors of humans are motivated. The different levels of needs as proposed by Maslow in a pyramid from the bottom to the top are: physiological, safety, love and belonging, esteem, and self-actualization.

Margot’s situation reveals that the “esteem” needs are unmet. According to the Maslow, esteem needs include dignity or esteem for oneself, desire for reputation and respect from others, which is clearly seen in the case of Margot.
