Money is important in this day and age. But money doesn't motivate people to do their best. Watch the video. Even better read some Deming.
I don't do my best work because I'm getting paid well. I do things because I think it matters, I enjoy it, I find it interesting and I believe it's part of something important.
At Energized Work people are paid a wage but they are rewarded intrinsically. We create Ba - a time and space where creative energy flows, existing knowledge is shared and new knowledge is created. People are living freely in this environment, in this culture. This helps them realize the elation in directing their own working lives, continuously improving at something they belibeve matters, and in doing something in the service of something larger than themselves. We'll be doing more in the new year to focus this creative energy.
