Motivation is NaN (Not a Number)
Listen now
Description
What motivates your programmers? In this episode, Marcus looks at the various factors that impact motivation, and why one of his engineers just wasn’t grooving on a project. Chances are you’ve got teammates who feel the same way. Guess what? It’s not that they’re lacking in motivation, it’s that they’re no longer motivated by what’s being given to them.
Show Notes

Problem solving is exciting, and engineers want to do exciting things.
