The study examines the factors that play a role in professionals' decisions to join, stay in, or leave a career in selected multilateral organisations (11 UN organisations, 5 multilateral development banks). It reveals that the main reasons influencing the decision process are:
- meaningful work,
- interesting and multifaceted work content,
- personal identification with the institution's values,
- challenging work,
- and professional development opportunities.
In contrast, financial reasons have only a minor impact.
