Book Description
A bold reimagining of Maslow's famous hierarchy of needs--and new insights for living your most authentic, fulfilled, and connected life. When positive psychologist Scott Barry Kaufman first discovered Maslow's unfinished theory of transcendence, sprinkled throughout a cache of unpublished journals, he felt a deep resonance with his own work and life. In this groundbreaking book, Kaufman picks up where Maslow left off, unraveling the mysteries of his unfinished theory, and integrating these ideas with the latest research on attachment, connection, exploration, love, purpose and other building blocks of a life well lived. Maslow's model provides a roadmap for finding purpose and fulfillment--not by striving for money, success, or "happiness," but by becoming the best version of ourselves, or what Maslow called self-actualization. Transcend reveals a level of human potential that's even higher, which Maslow termed "transcendence." Beyond individual fulfillment, this way of being--which taps into the whole person-- connects us not only to our best self, but also to one another. With never-before-published insights and new research findings, along with thought-provoking examples and personality tests, this empowering book is a manual for self-analysis and nurturing a deeper connection with our highest potential-- and beyond.

Book Description
In a series of essays that explore the notion of what brings significance to our existences, clarifying why we have this longing beyond the present moment and an insatiable dissatisfaction with where we are, scholar Frank Martela tackles the subject of finding meaning in life. With beautiful decorative elements and an engaging design, the book approaches its subject in a readily digestible form. It grapples with some of life’s most pressing questions, like "Is happiness a worthy goal?" and "What is the foundation for meaning in a secular society?" and "Is life an existential void?" yet Martela answers these questions and more in a relaxed, conversational tone and with a wry sense of humor, placing some of life’s greatest philosophical concerns and quandaries into a modern-day context. Martela quickly and concisely gets to the heart of the matter: your place in the world and how to find meaning in life as countless thinkers and philosophers have done before, yet the emphasis here is on what we do with the life we have and how we can make it more meaningful. Part prescriptive and part armchair philosophy book, A Wonderful Life is accessible to everyone, from the well-read scholar to the apprentice as well as anyone curious about how to extract the greatest meaning and sense of purpose from their existence.

Essay from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Marketing, Corporate Communication, CRM, Market Research, Social Media, grade: 97 %, University of Western Sydney (Sydney Graduate School of Management), course: Promotion & Advertising Overseas, 20 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: This report will analyse the Maslow's hierarchy of needs and its impact on promotion and advertising, but also if this model is applicable on other cultures. The author will give examples of promotions in western countries and to what exact stage those promotions are targeted. Furthermore the author will show different hierarchy of needs models in order to explain that the human needs vary in different parts of the world. Whilst in westernized countries the 'Esteem' and 'Belonging/Love' needs are mainly targeted with promotion and advertising, in developing countries a different approach in terms of promotion and advertising is more appropriate. The higher‐order needs for the general Asian culture are 'Status', 'Admiration' and 'Affiliation' whereas the higher‐order needs for the Arab culture are 'Esteem', 'Social needs' and 'Selfactualization'. In this paper the author will focus on China as an example of a developing country. The author will discuss the difference of the Chinese and the Western pyramid on the example of purchasing luxurious products. As a conclusion the author will give suggestions to companies of what to take into account when promoting in developing countries. ...]

Book Description
One of the foremost spokesmen for the Third Force movement in psychology, Abraham H. Maslow here articulates one of his prominent theses: the "religious" experience is a rightful subject for scientific investigation and speculation and, conversely, the "scientific community" will see its work enhanced by acknowledging and studying the species-wide need for spiritual expression which, in so many forms, is at the heart of "peak-experiences" reached by healthy, fully functioning people.

Book Description
Everyone has needs! But how many of us actually know what those needs are? Sure, we can point out the basic ones, eating, breathing and sleeping, but what other types of needs are there? Well, with the help of our good friend Abraham Maslow, we're going to be talking all about needs! Meet Maslow is all about learning what he referred to as the Hierarchy of Needs, a pyramid designed to teach us what every human really needs in order to excel! The entire purpose of man isn't just to live, but rather it is to live well, but we can't live well without having our needs met! It's problematic, however, when we barely have a grasp of what those needs actually entail! With Meet Maslow, you are going to be getting a no-nonsense guidebook to each step of the pyramid, learning about each need so that you can get closer to becoming a self-actualized member of society! It's time to put away the pop psychology books and the fad self-help trends and turn to the wisdom of a man who more or less invented the way we perceive all needs. With his guidance, this book's information and a little bit of hard work, you will find that you can begin to live life as a higher functioning individual in no time!

Book Description
After fifteen years of rising to the pinnacle of the hospitality industry, Chip Conley's company was suddenly undercapitalized and overexposed in the post-dot.com, post-9/11 economy. For relief and inspiration, Conley, the CEO and founder of Joie de Vivre Hospitality, turned to psychologist Abraham Maslow's iconic Hierarchy of Needs. This book explores how Conley's company "the second largest boutique hotelier in the world" overcame the storm that hit the travel industry by applying Maslow's theory to what Conley identifies as the key Relationship Truths in business with Employees, Customers and Investors. Part memoir, part theory, and part application, the book tells of Joie de Vivre's remarkable transformation while providing real world examples from other companies and showing how readers can bring about similar changes in their work and personal lives. Conley explains how to understand the motivations of employees, customers, bosses, and investors, and use that understanding to foster better relationships and build an enduring and profitable corporate culture.
