"I am always doing things I can't do, that's how I get to do them."

The quote pyramid is based on Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. A theory in psychology, proposed by Abraham Maslow in his 1943 paper A Theory of Human Motivation. We have translated Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, often portrayed in the shape of a pyramid, into a quote pyramid with the entrepreneurial and management skills needed to successfully run your organization. With the largest and most fundamental levels of skills at the top.
Understanding the strengths and weakness of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs is important in the field of international business. Evaluating the different needs, values, drives and priorities of people from different countries – individualistic or collectivist – is incredibly valuable in cross-cultural communications, and especially within the workplace. It also illustrates how differences in values can greatly affect work atmosphere and work ethic between cultures.
