The present research aims to study the relationship between self actualization and job satisfaction. The research hypothesis formulated suggested that self actualization would be related with Job satisfaction. The following measures were used for conducting this study. The first tool introduced to the participant was a demographic sheet which comprised of 2 parts ; part A was for personal data, which comprised of the personal details like age, marital status, qualification et cetera, and part B for work history including work experience, number of jobs shifted, work relations etcetera. Other then this 2 set of questionnaires were developed to measure the two research variables. The first questionnaire was based on Maslow's (1954) Hierarchy of needs which evaluated the self-actualization concept; the second one contained items from the Job satisfaction Questionnaire by Spector (1983) which were adapted to develop a new questionnaire to measure job satisfaction. A sample of 220 subjects including equal number of males and females participants was selected from tall and flat organization with the help of stratified sampling technique. The questionnaires were analyzed using Pearson r. Results showed negative correlation between self actualization and job satisfaction and further analysis indicated a positive correlation among preferred needs and job satisfaction (p<0.01). The limitations of the study and recommendations for further studies have also been discussed.
