Motivation and the Six “F”s – Organizational Culture
Preamble
The Six Fs do not appear to have been written by their author, Adam Bosworth. There are at least two blog mentions by Roger Weber and Brian Acker.
Introduction
The six Fs are fame, family, force, fortune, freedom and fun. The notion is that an organization should pick two of these as the priority of the organizational members, and recruit on that basis. Ask yourself which two of the six Fs are your primary motivators?
Fame
Become known and recognized by peers and strangers
Family
Relationships outside of work, aka time and flexibility
Force
Be a force in the world, power to change things
Fortune
Money, money, money
Freedom
Ability to choose and shape your work
Fun
How much enjoyment that can be had in your work
Question
Which two of these Fs motivate your work?

Fortune and Fun is what motivates me. I need fortune to fund my fun.
My family and fortune are the two that motivate me. I feel it’s time to slowly begin to repay my family for all they’ve sacrificed for me and my brother. With the high cost of living out here in the islands I wanna make as much as I can to sustain a worry-free life (which includes me working a 50-hour week [overtime/holiday pay])!
