As far as employee satisfaction is concerned, we tend to believe that employees want more pay, better benefits or added responsibility to be happier at work. It is true that we must compensate our employees fairly for the work they do. But by and large, what employees want most is a sense of accomplishment. In the February 2013 issue of Inc. Magazine, Harvard Business School professor and co-author of The Progress Principle Teresa Amabile notes, “Of all the things that contribute to a happy workday, the one thing that stands out … is making progress on meaningful work. Feeling like you are able to move forward on a daily basis engenders real joy.”
