Question: What university employed the psychologist that inspired David McClelland's thinking on power??

 McClelland's thinking was influenced by the pioneering work of Henry Murray, who first identified underlying psychological human needs and motivational processes (1938).  It was Murray who set out a taxonomy of needs, including needs for achievement, power, and affiliation—and placed these in the context of an integrated motivational model.  McClelland was inspired by Murray's research, and he continued to further develop Murray's theory by focusing on this theory in regard to the human population.  In McClelland's book "The Achieving Society", A-Pow helps explain an individual's imperative to be in charge.  According to his work there are two kinds of power, "social" and "personal". Need for power (nPow) is a term that was popularized by renowned psychologist David McClelland in 1961. <SEP>  He was Director of the Harvard Psychological Clinic in the School of Arts and Sciences after 1930.  Murray developed a theory of personality called personology, based on "need" and "press".  Murray was also a co-developer, with Christiana Morgan, of the Thematic Apperception Test (TAT), which he referred to as "the second best-seller that Harvard ever published, second only to the Harvard Handbook of Music." Henry Alexander Murray (May 13, 1893 – June 23, 1988) was an American psychologist at Harvard University. <SEP> Need theory, also known as Three Needs Theory, proposed by psychologist David McClelland, is a motivational model that attempts to explain how the needs for achievement, power, and affiliation affect the actions of people from a managerial context.  This model was developed in the 1960s soon after Maslow's hierarchy of needs in the 1940s.  McClelland stated that we all have these three types of motivation regardless of age, sex, race, or culture.  The type of motivation by which each individual is driven derives from their life experiences and the opinions of their culture.  This need theory is often taught in classes concerning management or organizational behaviour. <SEP> The need for affiliation (N-Affil) is a term that was popularized by David McClelland and describes a person's need to feel a sense of involvement and "belonging" within a social group; McClellend's thinking was strongly influenced by the pioneering work of Henry Murray who first identified underlying psychological human needs and motivational processes (1938).  It was Murray who set out a taxonomy of needs, including achievement, power and affiliation—and placed these in the context of an integrated motivational model.  People with a high need for affiliation require warm interpersonal relationships and approval from those with whom they have regular contact.  Having a strong bond with others make a person feel as if they are a part of something important that creates a powerful impact.  People who place high emphasis on affiliation tend to be supportive team members, but may be less effective in leadership positions.  A person who takes part in a group, whether it be a movement or project, create a push towards a sense of achievement and satisfaction for the individual and the whole.
