Are you insisting that everyone is operating at their absolute potential and incredibly passionate about their work? If an organization wishes to have the greatest contributions from its individuals, it must not only respect their individuality but appreciate their sentience. By appreciating that complexity, you can make explicit the links between a person's individual motivations and that of the organization, creating an alignment and alliance between the individuals that comprise the organization. This is at the center of doing work as an extension of one’s individual emotional convictions, as an expression of their interior life, as spiritual life by way of commerce. If we are trying to organize teams of people who will give their fullest effort--and not in a punishment oriented, extrinsic reward system, but in a fulfillment oriented, intrinsically motivated context—the job of a leader is to find people who will throw themselves into their work and then find how the organization can fit into their lives.
