Mary John will be rewarded for loyalty to her job at an award ceremony next Friday at the Hilton Hotel. For her almost two decades of service and then some, she will receive applause. A plaque. And a Hilton dinner befit for a queen.

I think that Buckingham had it right with his distilled list of questions. I am sure that the Mary you spoke to had a mentor that cared enough to talk to her regularly, and at least one good friend at work that she would be a friend with outside of the workplace. And no prolonged exposure to a sociopath boss.
Connection and "alignment" in the job would be good to have, but it is not always possible. And as is alwaus the case in organizations, those who conform most win.
I agree with richjob that in organisations it is those who confirm most who win. This is evident in many places. When we look at our generation or rather the generation just after our age group, we find often that this restlessness is mostly encouraged by a few things - dissatisfaction with the person you report to, being stifled and not getting to execute what you have learned, and in many cases, the hunger for more whether it is money or power.
As with all elements of this generation, they want things NOW, so when they don't get anywhere right away, they move on. This is fine, but sometimes to really make a difference in a company, one has to spend some time there and learn the culture and nature of the organisation, so that when you leave, you will be remembered for having left value behind. What one has to bear in mind is that if you start your own business, you have to put time and effort behind it with a lot of patience, there would be no turning back and dedication is paramount. You spend all your time making it work, and you can't run to somewhere else when the going gets tough. Like Judette said, being an entrepreneur is defintely for a risk taker. Sometimes people feel they are risk takers, but when it gets tough, they go right back into working for someone else. Those who survive are the true heros of entrepreneurship.
