Book Recommendation: Drive by Daniel Pink
Drive by Daniel Pink, 2002.
Need to attract and keep good people? This excellent book helps you understand what motivates employees today.
There is a gap between the science of motivation and how most people manage. External motivators, even things like performance linked pay, have been proven not to work and often do harm.
Pink talks about "employees with purpose" and details how to win over those who are motivated by internal drivers such as autonomy, mastery and purpose.
This book will help you manage better and understand the needs of today's knowledge workers.
