Rosetta Thurman has long been one of my favorite bloggers--I've been reading her blog since she began in 2007. Today she has a 5-year anniversary post (Congrats, Rosetta!) that really resonated for me.

Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

Would you order the most expensive meal on the menu and expect your date to pay? Would you tell your date to arrive at 7PM sharp and then show up an hour later? You probably wouldn’t, because great relationships are a two-way street of giving and taking. And like romantic relationships, your relationships with your employees need to be equally co-invested.

Our search for variable rewards is about an endless desire for three types of rewards: those of the tribe, the hunt and the self.
