Stage 3: Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs

Now, our group already proceed to stage 3 of the process!

We will draw a triangle for Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs at first, then we categorize our highest score results in stage 1 & 2 on it.



In stage 1, our highest score for brainstorming of 100 problems was "Government". Thus, we categorize 12 of it on the left.



Then, we categorize the highest score on stage 2 which is "Environment" on the right hand side.

Unfortunately, our results was imbalance for the problems & solutions!
The highest category in problem's side was on "Physiological", but on the solutions side, highest was on the "Safety & Security".
 
Hence, we've to add in some of the solutions from stage 2 in order to balance it up.

- ITEX'13 -

First of all, the reason we created this blog is to record down everything things we learns in the course ABDM4064 Business Research.
Besides, we will also update the interesting process and results for our research done in this course.

During the first lecture class held on 8th May for our Business Research course, we met our professor Mr. Stephen Ong. It's an interesting and fun lecture class, Mr. Ong tells us a lot of his experiences in research industry.
By the recommendation of Mr. Ong, most of us attended the 24th International Invention, Innovation and Technology Exhibition (ITEX) on 10th May 2013 at Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre.
ITEX'13 was an amazing exhibition! We learned some of the techniques for investment on the talk given by Mr. Stephen Ong and other professional speakers; we played an investment game during the talk.. and most of us losing money! =)
Besides that, we got the chance to met some innovators from all around the world in the exhibition. Most of them introduced their new invention to us, and we are surprised by their brilliant ideas!


We've took some pictures during the exhibition..
