Relatedness as a motivational driver

Relatedness covers our desire to connect and interact with other people. People are more motivated to take action when they're seen as pro-social.

Creating a sense of relatedness means ensuring people build connections with each other. It also means making sure people know the importance of what they're asked to do and how it relates to the rest of the team and organisation. If your team members know who they helped by their efforts, you can guarantee they'll work hard to help those people.
