The influential book "Maslow on Management" was authored by the well-known psychologist Abraham H. Maslow, who is best recognized for his hierarchy of needs theory. This book explores the more general areas of human motivation and behavior, even if its main concentration is on management ideas. It was first released in 1998, but for executives looking for a humanistic approach to management, it is still a useful and enlightening resource.

This book is unique because of Maslow's emphasis on a humanistic approach to management. The author asserts that people are driven by a sequence of wants that extends from basic survival to self-actualization and applies his well-known hierarchy of needs theory to the workplace.

Maslow opposes conventional management theories by promoting an atmosphere that fosters self-actualization or reaching one's greatest potential.
