Not really. Certain things like money, a nice office and job security can help people from becoming less motivated, but they usually don't help people to become more motivated. A key goal is to understand the motivations of each of your employees.
Another way to understand this model is to take the opposite approach, a positive one: Members of truly cohesive teams possess the following characteristics:
They trust one another
They engage in unfiltered conflict around ideas
They commit to decisions and plans of action
They hold one another accountable for delivering against those plans.
They focus on the achievement of collective results.

Pay competitively - Salary isn’t the only key to job satisfaction, but underpaying technology professionals will prompt them to seek other career opportunities
Offer new responsibilities - Top performers want to advance. Even when you can’t give a promotion, offer new areas of responsibility
Create a Learning Culture - Reimburse staff for relevant online classes, educational conferences and courses…if employees seek IT certifications, consider reimbursing them…consider starting a mentoring program.
Provide attractive benefits - Ask technology professionals what perks they want – from health plans to flexible work hours to paid time off – and do your best to deliver them.
Address burnout proactively - Promoting realistic workloads, bringing in project professionals…and tackling morale issues immediately can help prevent employees from feeling overburdened and stressed.
The Carrot Principle page 83
Highly satisfied and engaged employees are as rare as they are valuable. In HealthStream Research survey of 200,00 employees, only 40% were identified as being both highly engaged and highly satisfied. That’s reinforced by a 2006 survey of 14,000 workers showing 65 percent of employees are currently looking for work. That’s two-thirds of our people who are searching for greener pastures.

In 250 words or less, provide an example of how this analyst went above and beyond the norm for your customers, your organization, or their peers:
TEAM is a word that is most commonly used on the SLAIT service desk and Andi, since day one has been the ultimate teammate. Like a great closer in baseball, Andi continues to be the “go to” analyst when the bases are loaded and you need an out. With the steady growth of the SLAIT service desk the last couple of years, the training program was falling behind. Andi stepped to the plate and approached me about taking the lead on revamping the training program. Folklore says “Mighty Casey has struck out”, not so with Andi. With one mighty swing, she revamped the “entire” training program. Her six months of hard work and dedication provided not only new analysts with training but refresher training for the incumbent analysts as well. She worked the extra innings on the project to ensure that her teammates were versed on all policy and procedures. Those efforts demonstrated her willingness to be a team player, one who cares about the organization her fellow co-workers and the customers we support on a daily basis. Andi would fit into any “All Star” lineup. She is a clutch performer who lets her actions speak for themselves. No matter if our customers require a single, double, triple, or even a home run, they can count on Andi to deliver. Her enthusiasm, professionalism and willingness to play the game the right way, has been superb. Andi is our MVP on the service desk.
