Got a kick out of this - even more so that it's from the Harvard Business Review and written by a 'doctor'.

the best part is that he's not TOTALLY wrong - but, this is fucking drivel:
"The moral of the story? The more you pay people to do what they love, the less they will love it."
- That's probably true generally speaking. Necessity being the milf of all invention, etc. But not so applicable in the real world. If I were financially independent, or at least not debt ridden and living in an expensive city, I'd have no reason to squeeze every single creative idea that I could monetize on. I'd have time and especially motivation to work on -good shit-.Peter

- In short: what if, speaking about motivation, you got a carrot no matter what you did?
I think that's the point.Peter

"Instead of looking for the answer to a problem, they prefer to find a million answers or a million problems."

Straight from the comments panel.
"Sarah Green, you're doing a great job with the damage control.
Can Dr. Tomas write an article on how to manage black-but-difficult people too? Or how to deal with women during their cycles? With all the revisions and apologies you're writing, this guy could easily write an article on 7 rules for managing Sarah Green.Dr. Tomas is not nearly as important as he thinks he is, and calling creative people "arrogant" and "moody" is straight-up projection. Surely someone in the psychology field should know about that."

.... and in the sidebar of the article...
is it time for mutiny?
http://blogs.hbr.org/cs/2013/04/…"Perhaps you have dreamed of mutiny. Perhaps you serve under a boss whose grasp of what is important to the organization's success and how to achieve it is so shaky that he or she should be dispatched as an incompetent. Or maybe that leader's treatment of subordinates is so uncaring as to be abusive. If the situation is so bad that you are actually plotting the insurrection, it's a good moment to ask: When do mutinies actually succeed?"

Have you noticed AIGA always avoids all these chances to "represent" us and do what they say they do for the 'creative' field? They're a fucking joke.
Unfortunately, there is no organization or channel, other than blogs, to bring this type of shit to light and expose jokers like this cunt.
- exactly the same situation here, the ADCI was called out for even voting fake campaignsGeorgesIV
