I think the best kind of business for this sort of thing is one that is predominantly production- or process-oriented. I think it's a bit more difficult if it's a sales-oriented or service oriented, but it's still possible even in those cases. Certain environments are counterintuitive when it comes to creativity and autonomy and such. Radio Shack, for example.
However, in the culture industry, there is much process- and production-oriented work: producing books, designs, films, stage plays, for example. Where you grant employees the things mentioned in the video, I can see people becoming more motivated.
But even in manufacturing and tech environments, I think you could have the same thing. There are forward-thinking companies that have prided themselves on giving rewards to people who come up with new ideas for improvements, etc., and the rewards aren't always monetary.
I guess that sort of thing.
