W. Edwards Deming, this unassuming statistician from Wyoming, focuses on intrinsic motivation of individual human resources to transform industry through cooperation.  

He says "Extrinsic motivation (traditional management by objectives - performance appraisal) in the extreme, replaces the intrinsic motivation we are born with.  Self esteem, dignity, cooperation, curiosity, a yearning for learning, these attributes are high at the beginning of life, but are gradually crushed out, diminished, year-by-year throughout life...Why crush them out?  Why not nurture them?"  

This principle is at the heart of the change-management program that rebuilt Japan's infrastructure following WWII (and why the Deming Award remains the most prestigious prize in Japan).
