What Makes A Job Satisfying?

By Laura Berman Fortgang on September 7, 2011

Here’s a list of 10 factors that psychologists correlate with job satisfaction.  Which ones stand out as important to you?  How does your current job or previous jobs you’ve held measure up when these factors are considered?   Are there others you would add?   Some that come to our mind are: Values (how your values line up with those of your employer), Passion (degree of interest in the work), Creative Expression (getting to put your own stamp on things), Purpose (whether the work is meaningful to you).  While some of these may overlap with the list provided, it’s an interesting exercise to come up with your own unique job satisfaction barometer.  What would yours look like?

    I almost never comment, however i did a few searching and wound up
    here What Makes A Job Satisfying?. And I do have
    some questions for you if you don’t mind. Is it only me or
    does it look like some of these responses look like
    written by brain dead people? 😛 And, if you are writing at additional social sites, I would like to keep up with anything new you have to post.
    Would you list of every one of your community pages like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?
