"Every month I review the search terms that lead people to our Knoco website, just to see what people are searching for. A common search term that came up again this month, is "How to incentivise knowledge sharing".

I thought it was worth a blog post on it's own.

"Au long de ma vie professionelle, j'ai souvent entendu des dirigeants avisés affirmer avec une fière assurance : "de toutes façons, il n'y a que le plan de commissionnement pour faire courir mes vendeurs. Le reste c'est du bla bla".

Le principe de base est très simple en effet. Si vous voulez que vos commerciaux fassent ce que vous attendez d'eux, il suffit de mettre en place les récompenses (ou incentives, pour parler dans cet abominable jargon franglais qui envahit toutes nos correspondances désormais) qui vont bien. Plus tu fais ce pour quoi je te paye, plus je te paye."

"I am a strong believer that organizations, should focus and facilitate the use of these tools in order to maximize organizational benefits. To drive value, I've often referred to the engagement factors and in this post I wanted to focus on ons of the factors, "Motivation".

How do we address motivation? Do we adopt the "build it and they will come" approach? No. But what about Wikipedia? it seems like complete "self-organization" has made it successful. But consider that only 1% of the people who visit Wikipedia actually contribute content. That's alright with a population set of the world, but 1% of your company may not be enough and if you have specific objectives you may need to motivate others to participate"

Many other companies are also trying to foster greater collaboration within their ranks. Some are using web-based social media to help them. For instance, Lockheed Martin, an American defence giant, plans to roll out Unity—a software platform that encourages employees from different areas to connect with one another via blogs, wikis and other online tools—across its entire business later this year, after piloting it in one area. But dismantling internal barriers to co-operation is a tricky business that requires much more than smart software. Unless firms are careful, there is a real danger that collaborative crusades could do them more harm than good.

Alors, pour développer le business dans ces temps difficiles, David nous confirme qu'il n'est pas nécessaire d'apprendre aux collaborateurs à vendre, ni de monter les enchères sur les primes.

Il faut, au contraire, trouver, partner par partner, manager par manager, quel type de business le passionne, quel type de client il a profondément envie de servir.

Car avec la passion, on le sait tous, on fait des miracles.

There are many, many instances of financial incentives driving behavior that then causes organizations major problems. This fact raises the question of why no one ever seems to learn anything—which explains why the current situation with home mortgages looks remarkably like the case of making bad loans to countries that couldn’t repay them about 25 years ago and a little like the savings and loan mess of the late 1980s.

I can point to three key reasons why collectively we seem to learn nothing from past mistakes:
