Interesting... then why are there entire systems of thought in management theory centered around motivating people to work?

It's a warm and fuzzy quote, but humans don't work this way. If we're not sufficiently motivated, no force on earth is going to allow us to do our "best job".

A good manager knows this situation and can help their team through it. Sadly, there really aren't many good managers out there at all.
