description This motivation research complexity stems from the extreme diversity in personality traits, and in context, including the way people perceive social and natural environments as well as their own place in them. The theoretical basis for this empirical research is the theory of intrinsic motivation. The subjects of the survey conducted between 2018 and 2020 comprised 120 entrepreneurs in the agricultural sector. The aim of the study is to establish the structure of work motivation and its influence on work parameters. The main conclusions relate to prevailing intrinsic work motivation in entrepreneurs, as well as to hypotheses: the internal motives operationalizing competence needs tend to create not only satisfaction with the executed work but also a sense of future purpose; when external motives such as prestige and respect from others are strong, the results of the executed work are perceived as unsatisfactory and with a negative effect on the self-esteem of the respondents.
