Great leaders let others take charge and make decisions, increasing autonomy.
Great leaders often have a strong presence, which comes from working hard to be authentic and real with other people, to create a sense of relatedness.
And great leaders keep their promises, taking care to be perceived as fair.”

“In the workplace, you could increase people’s status by publicly recognizing them. The positive reward from positive public recognition can resonate with people for years.
In the workplace, increasing a sense of certainty comes from having a better understanding of the big picture. You could reward someone by giving him or her access to more information. Some innovative firms allow all employees access access to full financial data, weekly. People feel much more certain about their world when they have information, which puts their mind more at ease and therefore makes them better able to solve difficult problems.
In the workplace, you could increase autonomy by letting people work more flexibly, or work from home, or reducing the amount of reporting required.
In the workplace, an example of increasing relatedness would be giving people opportunities to network with their peers more, by allowing them to attend more conferences or networking groups.
In the workplace, in order to increase fairness some organizations allow employees to have “community days,” where they give their time to a charity of their choice.”
