#Extrinsic vs intrinsic motivation assessment drivers
Self-determination theory lays out three drivers of intrinsic motivation: autonomy (the desire for control and choice in our lives), relatedness (the desire for purpose, meaning and connection through our actions) and competence (the desire to grow in mastery).ĭeci and Ryan believed that sustainable motivation comes from within, and intrinsic motivation cannot be forced onto someone.
When an individual is motivated to perform an action for the sake of the action, they are considered intrinsically motivated. When someone is motivated to perform an action because of outside pressures, they are considered extrinsically motivated. Psychologists Edward Deci and Richard Ryan developed a model of the key components that drive intrinsic motivation, called self-determination theory. Yet tying extrinsic rewards to these traits is widespread in business. In business, hiring managers often cite grit, creativity, curiosity and innovative thinking among their desired traits.
