Autonomy fosters a sense of ownership and responsibility from "summary" of Drive by Daniel H. Pink
Autonomy is more than just the ability to make choices and decisions. It's about feeling a sense of ownership and responsibility for those choices and decisions. When individuals have the freedom to control their own work and time, they are more likely to take ownership of their tasks and feel responsible for the outcomes. This sense of ownership and responsibility can lead to increased motivation, engagement, and performance.
In many traditional workplaces, employees are often micromanaged and given little autonomy. This lack of autonomy can lead to feelings of disengagement and apathy. When individuals feel like they have no control over their work, they are less likely to take ownership of their tasks and feel responsible for the outcomes. As a result, their motivation and performance suffer.
On the other hand, when individuals are given the freedom to make their own decisions and work in ways that suit them best, they are more likely to take ownership of their tasks and feel responsible for the outcomes. This sense of ownership and responsibility can lead to increased motivation, engagement, and performance. When individuals feel like they have control over their work and are trusted to make decisions, they are more likely to invest themselves fully in their tasks and take pride in their work.

This can lead to increased motivation, engagement, and performance across the organization.
