"The Vodafone legacy, purpose, and culture are organically motivating. Knowing the work you do is designed to connect people and change their lives for the better seems like a powerful motivator, especially when you're working for a true digital pioneer. I believe that I am also highly intrinsically motivated. However, I am often encouraged by verbal recognition of my impact, along with compensation-based rewards. Being a leader comes naturally to me, so I don't find it an onerous task. My competitive side keeps me motivated as well."
"In a competitive industry, I want to work for the best and with the best. I am motivated by a company that sets high-performance standards and colleagues who work hard to meet them.

I believe that a purpose-driven company attracts the kind of dedicated, thoughtful, and global-minded peers that would motivate me to do my best work."
