What planet is he from? Of course people respond to monetary compensation. Why else have a job? You have to have money to live. If you weren’t being paid why would you work? Of course as you’re working positive feedback will help a lot with morale. It’s nice if a manager or supervisor praises your work when you do well instead of ignoring it when you do well and only jumping on you to criticize like Stuart does. But without raises and monetary compensation, no matter how much you may be praised, you won’t stay if a better paying job becomes available.
I want to see those studies, because I guarantee they were done by corporate-adjacent think tanks (but I repeat myself) that juked the numbers in order for it to look like this was the case. Thus, corporate has a convenient lie to push on their subordinates
Sure, studies like this exist, but I’m pretty sure they never talked to a single working-class person when they do them.
I mean, if you poll executives who make enough to have some luxury on top of having all their material needs met (rent, food, bills, SAVINGS, etc.), sure, those people want praise and educational opportunities. People that need to work for a living want, and need, money. Encourage them with money. Reward them with money.
I’m pretty sure all those studies just exist so corporations can point to them like “see, STUDIES SAY people want an attaboy and a pizza party” and then give themselves bonuses for saving so much on payroll.
I am ENTIRELY convinced that the people saying that money isn’t a motivating force have NO evidence to back it up.

Yeah no, Us employees want extra money, not a fucking pat on the back!
