Daniel Pink
In this lively RSA Animate video, based on a Dan Pink talk, Pink illustrates the hidden truths behind what really motivates us at home and in the workplace.
Most of us believe that the best way to motivate ourselves and others is with external rewards like money, power, influence. That’d be a mistake.
The real secret to high performance and satisfaction, particularly in knowledge work, is very deeply human. It's the need to direct our own lives, to learn, create, and innovate on new things, and to do better by ourselves, our families, and the world around us.
