Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to McClelland, more than one need may be working at the same time. He identified three types of needs: the need for achievement, the need for affiliation, and the need for power. Each of these needs can be active at the same time and can interact with each other to drive motivation. Therefore, unlike Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory, there is no strict order of needs that must be satisfied before higher level needs can become active.
