Your motivation may be that the idea of success and achievement drives you. Perhaps you are working toward career advancement. Take some time to think about what truly motivates you.

"I believe that, for the most part, I am intrinsically motivated. However, I am often encouraged by verbal recognition of my impact, along with compensation-based rewards. This could be a competition for a gift card or a contest where I can earn a bigger holiday party budget for my team. Being a leader comes naturally to me, so I don't find it to be an onerous task very often. My competitive side keeps me motivated as well."

If there is one thing that I learned during this pandemic is to cultivate intrinsic motivation. However, if I could ask for an external reward from TAL, I would say it would be really motivating for me to be given opportunities to continuously learn, enhance my knowledge and improve my soft skills. I believe a leader never stops learning. I always find it motivating to see myself growing as a person. When I get better, my team gets better, and the company gets better.

This answer is great! You certainly sound motivated to learn and improve. Intrinsic motivation is also very important, and it can be a challenging act to master. It would be great to provide the interviewer with details on how you built intrinsic motivation throughout the pandemic.
