Question

Is motivation a zero sum proposition? Unsolicited 09:38, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Employees

Always train your employees so that they will be useless to your competitors. Then when the headhunters come to take your valued staff away, the new employer will find their 'hot catch' is useless, and simultaneously you will reduce your load of pricey "legacy personnel". Further, industrial psychology articles seem to underplay the roles that deceit, treachery and generally scummy behavior play in motivation (especially in academic circles!!). -- regford 19:50, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Extrinsic Motivation Included?

Why is Extrinsic motivation a sub-category of the Intrinsic motivation page? Either there should be an article on each, or each should be a sub-category of an article on 'motivation' with no additional articles specifically for either. --Gellender 01:25, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea. So you've suggested to MERGE this article with motivation. Look up merging in the Wikipedia help section and it should tell you how to begin the process of merging. It should tell you to add a template to both Motivation and this article. — Chris53516 ^(Talk) 04:50, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have marked this article and Motivation as candidates for a merge. See above discussion "Extrinsic Motivation Included?" for my reasoning. --Gellender 05:52, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
