7. The Great Pyramids
The problem is that most companies aren’t aware
of the implications of Maslow’s hierarchy ––
instead they focus on short-term financial
performance and tangible results.
So …….
Conley’s message is largely about the functions
and importance of his Maslow-inspired
Relationship Truths –– three separate pyramids
that represent the needs hierarchies of the three
stakeholder groups.
12. Emotional Equation
Chip Conley’s Emotional Equations proposes a
simplified, logical, almost mathematical approach to
managing some of the modern world’s most common
challenges.
His book has some major flaws, but is still, overall,
quite a useful read.
