True, but I think the most important part is missing: challenge and growth. My first boss had mantra: Grow or Go. There is a misunderstanding that only top performers want to grow. Actually, all team members want to grow, but in different areas and at different pace. In other words, good manager must always ensure that team members are challenged and they have feeling of actual growth and accomplishments. I believe that "growth" is the most neglected part. And I think it is most neglected part because majority of companies have only two "growth paths": management and individual contributors while majority of people don't nicely fit into these categories.
