”No-one is such an expert on your job than yourself”

At good workplace human psychological basic needs are fulfilled:

• Autonomy means independence and freedom to have enough power on decision making concerning one’s own job. No-one is such an expert on your job than yourself.
• Competence experience of know-how and getting things done. It’s frustrating and emotionally energy consuming not to be able to succeed in one’s work.
• It’s human basic need to feel connected with others, caring and acceptance, that is called a need of relatedness
• Benevolence, that is opportunity to do good to others, makes work meaningful and is in line with our individual values.
