Résumé : |
As more and more employees seek meaning in their professional life, this article gets its originality from the measure of the realness. At a time when the quest for meaning is more than ever at the heart of the professional concerns of many employees, this article draws its originality from the measurement of the existence of a positive correlation between the satisfaction of needs and the autonomous motivation of HIQ people, i.e., with an intelligence quotient higher than 130 on the Wechsler scale. Our thinking is rooted in both Self-Determination Theory and the Theory of the Social Value of People, then tested on a substantial sample, the results of which are examined by analysis of regressions and variance. Our results show that HQIs seem to focus more on their social utility than on their social desirability, and that a high IQ individual is more likely to leave his job if he does not find sufficient meaning in it despite the presence of positive extrinsic levers. Our study validates certain salient needs, such as the importance attached to the values upheld by the organisation, the autonomy sought in work, and the need for relatively personalised management, all of which form the basis of our recommendations. Its main theoretical contribution lies in a new definition of intelligence, which we place within the field of Management Sciences and which we describe as the ability to make the right decisions for the organisation. The limitations will feed into our future research avenues, in this case the mobilisation of structural equation analysis of our future statistical material to refine the relationships between our variables within the paradigms of employer branding, psychological contracts and complex intercultural environments. |
