A pyramid, much like Maslow's heirarchy of needs
- Seeing the results of the physical and emotional investment in our work, regularly
- Realizing our visions
- Validation of the efforts we expended and decisions we made with autonomy
- Quantifying and celebrating the impact we have had on peoples lives via our work
- Recieving reward, praise, or other kind of recognition for our accomplishments
- Outcomes over output
- Enabling and encouraging continuous improvement
- Seeking fulfillment through the mastery of our tools and problem space
- Enabling people to accomplish their ambitions, fulfill their self-visions, self-actualize, grow
- ...
- Being able to decide how we accomplish goals and deliver outcomes
- All decisions are of our own volition
- Delivering within parameters, requirements, and drivers, not obeying commands
- Having appropriate purchasing and provisioning delegation - being able to buy our own tools, provision our own infrastructure
- Involved deeply across software delivery from paddock to plate, and being able to impact any area
- Supporting strategic initiatives, not always prioritising for tactical short term wins
- Masters of our own destiny, makers of our own rope
