Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Maslow's hierarchy of needs consists of five levels: physiological needs, safety needs, love/belonging needs, esteem needs, and self-actualization needs. In Japan, security needs such as job security, stability, and safety are often prioritized over other needs. Therefore, it may be beneficial for Jessie to rearrange the hierarchy so that security needs are at the top to better address employee motivation in the company.
