Somtimes I wish I could take all of the insightful and interesting comments from these threads and show them to upper management and corporate america! (if they would even care to listen)
Why? Because I think it would teach them a thing or two about how to truly motivate people and how to find out what people really care about. It is usually not the money, as I have found in reading everyone’s comments. Most people look even deeper than money to be truly satisfied with their job.
I for one, like this little thing called appreciation and not being told how indispensable I am. (no matter how true that might be)
How about you? What really makes IT people tick? What are your motivations? Does your employer make you feel dispensable? What do we really want from our employers???
Just curious……
