This study the question of the motivation in the organizations has as central subject, approaching specifically the motivation in the leaderships of a company of the branch of eletroeletrônico of the Industrial Polar region of Manaus. The employed materials and methods were constituiram of an instrument of measurement of the type scale atitudinal of Likert, considering as dimensions, the hierarchy of the necessities human beings established for Maslow. For in such a way, the analysis of the validity of the assertions was necessary and test of average confiabilidade.Valores and coefficients of linear correlation had been used for analyses of the data. The conclusions enclose all the company, therefore they understand the diverse areas as: production, engineering, materials, quality, planning and purchases. The results had shown that the degree of motivation of the leaders in relation to the searched company is high, since the perceptions of the majority of the interviewed ones had been classified as positive and very positive. / Aliada à competitividade nos processos de produção, as práticas inovadoras de gestão de pessoas ganham força na gestão dos negócios. Esse estudo tem como tema central a questão da motivação nas organizações, abordando especificamente a motivação nas lideranças de uma empresa do ramo de eletroeletrônico do Pólo Industrial de Manaus. Os materiais e métodos empregados constituiram-se de um instrumento de medição do tipo escala atitudinal de Likert, considerando como dimensões, a hierarquia das necessidades humanas estabelecidas por Maslow. Para tanto, foi necessário a análise da validade das asserções e teste de confiabilidade.Valores médios e coeficientes de correlação linear foram utilizados para análises dos dados.

Besides the braking system the steering system is one of the most important systems on vehicles. The reliability and the performance of a steering system decides on the controllability of the vehicle under normal conditions as well as emergency situations. In everyday use the characteristics, the connectivity to assistance systems and the energy efficiency of the steering system become more and more important to fulfill the increasing demands regarding fuel consumption, carbon dioxide emissions and comfort. To meet these demands, new steering systems must be implemented and new technologies have to be developed. This contribution compares different approaches regarding functionality and energy efficiency to give an indication which system is the most promising solution for future front axle steering systems as well as rear steered axles (tag- or pusher axle) on trucks.
