    Solution

    Maturity Theory, presented by Chris Argyris in Personality and Organization, is one of the many theories that seek to explain the human nature and behavior. According to this theory, a persons’ development is processed along a continuous break of an immaturity situation to a maturity situation. A mature person is characterized for being active, independent, self-confident and self-controlled. On the contrary, an immature person is passive, dependant, has lack of confidence and feels need of control by others.
