What Maslow’s Hierarchy Won’t Tell You About Motivation

A simple, clear description of self-determination theory, with a few examples of how it might be applied. The example given is nothing like as good as the description - it is concerned with making people bend to your will through motivational trickery - but the description of SDT is good, as is the brief, dismissive debunking of Maslow's hierarchy of needs (an armchair theory with little or no foundation in reality).
