What are your thoughts on the Dan Pink intrinsic motivation theory/perspective and are you aware of any other, than the 3-4 companies that are following either a 20% rule idea or something else that is motivating employees today in corporate America? It sounds like a lot of hype and not sure how effective it is. It must be more than just a perspective, it must be a way of business life.
You’ve got some wonderful insights on engagement. And, engagement is related to motivation. Would appreciate hearing your thoughts on this.

Anne:
I like the ideas of Dan Pink. They are not new but he packages them well. I hope for more than motivation, I want engagement. I believe engagement is bidirectional and that each employee is responsible for their own engagement while accountable to everyone else. I think engagement is richer and more robust than motivation and is certainly more than a happy dance on You Tube. I think the next step is to realize that: “there is no way to engagement, engagement is the way.” It is how we work. learn, retire, etc. This does add some complexity to the topic and offers options too.
