So we want to learn, grow, and take on more responsibilities. Before we can develop a sense of ownership in our work, we must consider it important and have a say in picking what we do and how we do it. Taking that one step further, the company must be willing to adjust the job to meet an employee's long-term career objectives. When that synergy exists, you have a true win-win situation. You want to develop your organizational strategy based on this understanding.
People are more likely to succeed when they are excited about a project and feel responsible.
Mutual confidence and trust are the key ingredients. If an employee does not trust your judgment, he or she won't believe the project is worth owning. And if you don't have confidence in your employees' ability, you won't leave them alone to develop a sense of ownership. In either case, failure is built in. In building an organization, you need to find qualified people that share your goals, your value system, and your ethical standards.
