We all know: Money does not really motivate. Especially for intellectual work (engineers, managers, ..) financial incentives can be even counter intuitive.
But what can a company then offer instead ?
1. Autonomy
2. Mastery
3. Purpose.
Listen to Dan Pink in the video: “Autonomy: the urge to direct our own lives. Mastery: the desire to get better and better at something that matters. Purpose: the yearning to do what we do in the service of something larger than ourselves.”
