The Retrospector

One of my recent articles on Top 10 Ways to Motivate Geeks has gotten some good attention lately and driven quite a bit of traffic to the site. I’ve had some interesting “opposites” approaches show up in comments regarding the things that do NOT motivate geeks. I’ve also stumbled onto some other pages that hit the some of the same points I have. Some good thought and effort went into these, and I think some of the points made are things I had in mind when coming up with my own geek motivation list.

The links:

• Top 10 Ways to Demotivate Geeks
• How to make IT Staff Less Angry (series)
• What Makes People Unhappy at Work
• Why Your Employees Are Losing Motivation

I’m not one to normally post things without something unique to add, but I felt inclined to share a little “link-love” with others that have hit the topic of motivation in a similar manner. I think this also establishes that I’m at least on a somewhat correct track with my own list seeing that many others out there not only agree with me, but have also been posting their own perspectives which aren’t far from my own.
Feel free to add any attitional twists to the geek-motivation topic. I’ll keep my eye out for some more interesting and unique takes on the matter.
