Intrinsic motivation drives employees to exceed expectations from "summary" of Drive by Daniel H. Pink

When employees are driven by intrinsic motivation, they are more likely to go above and beyond what is expected of them. This type of motivation comes from within, stemming from a genuine desire to do well and take pride in one's work. Unlike extrinsic motivators such as rewards or punishments, intrinsic motivation is driven by personal satisfaction and a sense of purpose. Employees who are intrinsically motivated are not just working for a paycheck or a promotion; they are driven by a deeper sense of fulfillment and a desire to excel in their roles. This internal drive pushes them to set higher standards for themselves and strive to exceed expectations, not because they have to, but because they want to. Intrinsic motivation is a powerful force that can lead to increased productivity, creativity, and overall job satisfaction. When employees are motivated by their own internal desires, they are more likely to take ownership of their work and take pride in their accomplishments. This sense of autonomy and mastery leads to a greater sense of fulfillment and engagement in their work. By fostering a culture of intrinsic motivation within an organization, leaders can inspire employees to reach new heights and achieve greater success. When employees are driven by a genuine desire to excel, they are more likely to take risks, think outside the box, and push themselves beyond their comfort zones. This type of motivation can lead to innovation, growth, and ultimately, exceeding expectations.
