MOTIVATION vs. MOVEMENT

i just read a book about motivation. this relates to the office life. most of the time many employers really dont want motivated workers. They confuce the word motivation with the word movement. They want people who do what they want when they want and how they want it done.

to me and as described in the book; "A motivated person may not necessarily do just that. He may rock the boat by suggesting innovative ideas for a company content to do things the way they have always been done. hence, the motivated employee may find his ideas squelched & along with his ideas, off course his motivation."

however, most of the time ppl feel that to go reverse of what the boss say is completely against the rule. so what?
