Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Choice, competence and meaningfulness are three of the key pillars of intrinsic motivation, as identified by Deci and Ryan's Self-Determination Theory. By offering employees a sense of choice in how they work, competence in their abilities to complete tasks, and meaningfulness in their work, Alice is likely to increase their intrinsic motivation. Conditioning and determination are not as closely related to intrinsic motivation.
