The point is neither about hierarchy or circle but how Maslow built his entire philosophy on the psychotic mother he despised.

Didn’t his own insecurities also shape his views on why a ‘biological elite’ should be given power?

“The only way I can see out of this dilemma in any future, one-world civilization is for the biological superiors (alphas or aggridants) to become a kind of priestly class to which is given less monetary reward and fewer privileges or luxuries than the average members of the overall population. The picture I have here is of the leaders of civilization — the sages, teachers, pioneers, and creators — com posing something like the Grey Eminence figures of the past, like monks clad in the simplest garments and perhaps vowing to lead selfless lives of poverty.”

If that’s his criteria for selecting “whole, healthy men” as having self-actualized, who was he to tell us what’s correct and what isn’t?

All Maslow did was reinforce the idea that work should be a temple of self-actualization (i.e. for the market to replace the church (religion) in what he coined as "Eupsychian" management.

Was Maslow ever aware of how the system molds behaviors? https://bit.ly/3uPpkvC

DO name one CEO who has self-actualized, please.
