Abstract

Neuroscientists are now giving interesting insights on how people behave in different situations. Which part of the brain is stimulated and which part is not stimulated during in certain conditions. Various new models are given by the neuroscientists now. SCARF model is now a new contribution of neuroscience. On the other hand Maslow's Hierarchy of Need theory is one of the classical theories on motivation and also criticized one. Based on recent findings by SCARF model, the need theory has been re-scrutinized. By making a strong relationship between this model and theory, I have made several suggestions for the present leaders and mangers in an organization.
