> Some people just aren’t motivated.

Is it really that people aren't motivated or that they aren't motivated by the incentives you're offering?

> A surprise pay raise, catering lunches, taking them to an offsite, etc whatever motivational strategies you have may provide some short term result

I imagine what might be more effective is actually talking to them and figuring out what they actually care about.
