Drive (Driving Force) Dena Pink
The book Dena Pink has become incredibly popular among business people. Pink tells us why we should not consider staff motivation not only from the point of view of external factors, but also money and bonuses, but also from the point of view of internal forces, for example, mastering new skills, independence and tasks. The carrot and stick model that was used in the 20th century no longer works, and business leaders need to understand the true nature of staff motivation.
Den's kick on TED is a great way to spend 20 minutes and learn more about his views on staff motivation.
