How to Improve in Self-Actualization and Motivation
Please assist with 150 words response to each question.
1. As a manager, it can be difficult to encourage employees toward self-actualization while at the same time respond to pressures for high performance and production. What responsibilities (if any) do you think managers have to foster self-actualization in their employees as opposed to "getting the job done"? How can managers achieve a workable balance between these two "responsibilities"?
2. Explain what are some of the characteristics of work itself that you find to be intrinsically motivating (e.g., variety, challenge, decision-making authority, pride of ownership, a sense of progress)?
