“Studies havefound that employees of not-for-profit organizations and charities are oftenmore highly motivated than employees of for-profit corporations to perform wellat work when their performance is not being monitored or evaluated. Interviewswith employees of not-for-profit organizations suggest that the reason fortheir greater motivation is the belief that their work helps to improvesociety. Because they believe in the importance of their work, they havepersonal reasons to perform well, even when no financial reward is present.Thus, if our corporation began donating a significant portion of its profits tohumanitarian causes, our employees’ motivation and productivity would increasesubstantially and our overall profits would increase as well.”
1、盈利公司的员工没有非盈利表现的好，不代表非盈利公司的员工比盈利公司的员工more highly motivated. While非盈利公司的员工多是是志愿者，会努力工作motivated by 服务社会的意愿，盈利公司的员工也可以motivatedby personal原因，比如说挣钱养家，从工作中获得 job satisfaction.
2、作者认为企业捐钱可以motivate 企业的员工的推论是建立在这样的假设上：盈利企业员工的员工和非盈利组织的员工一样会被beliefthat their work helps to improve society所激励，而这个是没有道理的，盈利企业的员工选择为盈利企业工作而不是非盈利企业工作本身就暗示了盈利企业员工更看重钱。
3、而且，就算捐钱可以激励，不经过一个仔细的成本分析就决定去捐钱是不够严谨的，因为来自于捐钱使员工工作更努力的收益还不如捐出去的钱本身多。
