$$ In responding, comment on the motivators they might employ. Offer suggestions based on your own experience or based on research.

If I were a manager for a start$-$up company, I would follow Google's ideas about offering free incentives like bringing pets to work $($Cook$,2012)$ and offering employees the option to come in and work when they want, how they want, and the hours they want. Allowing employees, the freedom to choose their schedules would be an intrinsic motivation. This motivation $"$is the drive to do something because it is inherently enjoyable or satisfying. It is not driven by external rewards or punishments, but by the internal satisfaction that comes from completing a task or achieving a goal." $($MSN$,$ n$.$d$.)$

I would choose this motivation because it is positive reinforcement to do a good job that allows them to feel satisfied. Offering praise for great work and accomplishments as soon as it happens, helps establish an enjoyable work environment. Knowing that their hard work is recognized and appreciated.
