What if the most powerful business strategy wasn't about driving harder, rewarding faster, or threatening louder? When WD-40's market cap exploded from $300 million to $2.5 billion under Garry Ridge's leadership, the secret wasn't a new sales tactic or cost-cutting measure. It was something far more radical: they stopped trying to motivate people. Instead, they created conditions where motivation naturally flourished. Through economic downturns and a global pandemic, they never laid off a single employee while maintaining 93% engagement. The paradox is striking-by abandoning traditional motivation tactics, they achieved what every leader desperately seeks: sustained excellence without burnout.
