There have been studies before, and there will be more in the future. And this one is yet another confirmation that companies get most of employees motivation wrong.

What people seek is a sense of autonomy (I can choose the work I do), relatedness (I belong with my colleagues), and competence (I master what I do). If you’re not working to ensure your people get to experience these, you are missing out, and your company is just one of many.

Good luck!
