damn cool post! Every day at work I am looking at the new ‘wow’ factors! no matter how much that client sucks, our aim to make them realise ‘our team is indispensable’ for them and eventually they want to be on our side! In last 7 yrs of my career I have only seen clients coming back to us each time and are ready to wait till we can accommodate their work… war is a team work and wining it needs a strategy. same goes with our work! Its all about the ‘us’ factor!

Durga, if you dont feel motivated to fight for anything in your job, then you need to relook at your job.

.. and motivation to fight a war???
when I was new to my job., it was very exicitng I enjoyed it all the while ,, until past few days.
I think now I know what i am doing.. and I dont see any motivation(learning), so i dont see any motivation in fighting a battle.. all i do is go-work-come back..

the purpose you are mentioning here probably varies with the person’s career life cycle as well.

early stage – high passion, raring to go, looks beyond C&B
middle stage – married, lower hope of following his heart, money becomes important, more liabilities
later stage – what do i say ? beyond point of no return.

But i get what you say. Keeping all other variables out, its a challenge to make the employee who comes everyday give more. Glad if its working.

Btw, can u write a guest blog for btp on ecommerce ?

@Mayur – Please do , and give a trackback
@ranjith – theory X and theory Y is used to determine whether i need to use danda. In army, danda is always there … in that sense, you have HR policies . but what the analogy determines is for what r u willing to go that extra mile?

Great! I simply adored the analogy with soldiers. I think for most of the people, the priority is to finish the work and go home. They wait for the monthly salaries and some times the incentives.

You have inspired me. I’m going to write some thing about it.
