Correct Answer: Self-actualization needs


Solution : The correct answer is (a) Self-actualization needs.

Self-actualization needs, according to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, are at the top of the pyramid and involve fulfilling an individual's desire to achieve their full potential, pursue personal growth, and attain self-fulfillment. By seeking input and encouraging ownership, the supervisor is empowering employees to take control of their work and contribute their best efforts, aligning with the self-actualization level of needs. This approach supports personal and professional growth and enables individuals to fulfill their potential within the workplace.
