Correct Answer: Self-actualization needs


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

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.
