Thought provoking questions that get at purpose. Really deep ideas around the core of employee motivation, desire, passion, effort, and work satisfaction.
Barry Deutsch's insight:
One of the most significant elements of employee motivation, discretionary effort, satisfaction is "matterness". Does this job matter to me - does it align with my purpose? Secondly, does the work I do matter to others - am I effecting their life (teammates, clients, customers) in a positive manner? this article helps managers start to wrap their arms around helping members of their team grasp their purpose - whether they matter.

Barry Deutsch's insight:
Interesting perspective on what your employees might indicate they want if you were to ask them. Very consistent with all the studies on retention, employee engagement, and satisfaction.

The primary reason most people quit their jobs is due to a lack of opportunity = learning, impact, and becoming. The second most common reason is you lose respect for your immediate boss - mercurial, unfair, arbitrary, poor manager and leader, doesn't develop you. Why put up with a dysfunctional boss when there are so many great opportunities waiting for you?
