continues to move up the hierarchy in the order of importance and the manager needs
to meet their next level need, to continue to motivate them. - ANSWER-Maslow's

are different, and they have specific needs.

through pay and conditions of work. - ANSWER-Advantages of Maslow's Hierarchy of
Needs

individual employee is. This may make it difficult to determine an appropriate strategy to
motivate each employee.

hierarchy and meet their needs individually.
