The Complex man The theory on the complex nature of man was posited by Maslow who averred that man’s needs fall into a hierarchy of relative prepotency. Needs range from the most basic physiological to the most intricate psychological state of self-realization. A need ceases to be potent when it is met and man strives to satisfy the next rung of needs. People are variable in what motivates them. Their self-motivation changes from time to time‚ and through time‚ and from situation to situation
