95% of Managers Follow an Outdated Theory of Motivation
“a recent study by psychologist Susan David … asked people what made them so engaged and excited about their work. 96% of the employees didn’t mention pay at all… In describing their motivations at work, highly engaged employees “highlighted feeling autonomous and empowered, and a sense of belonging on their teams.”
