ABSTRACT
The entire rationality explaining our motivations in life and work could be summarised in one expression: the logic of love. We are all driven to seek those things we consider good, the things we love. We all need to be loved, to love ourselves, to love others and to return love to God (in the case of believers), and therein lies happiness in life and work. Following the logic of love, this chapter explains that the four columns of our map summarise human motivations in organisations, consisting of receiving, achieving, giving and returning the truly human good at work. Nevertheless, not all goods deserve to be loved equally; there is a hierarchical order of love (vertical): higher goods are more worthy of being loved. Under this same logic, it is also possible to speak of a relational order of love (horizontal): the most transcendent goods coming first.
