Recommendation

In this educational video, motivational expert Daniel Pink explores what inspires people to perform well at work. Surprisingly, throwing cash at employees often inhibits performance rather than enhancing it. People do their best work when they are mastering their own time, utilizing and improving their skills, or contributing to a greater ideal. The presentation does have illustrative examples, but how you implement those useful bits of knowledge in your company remains up to you. getAbstract recommends this compulsively watchable video to anyone who needs to motivate others in the workplace.

Take-Aways

  • Large rewards can work as incentives, but only when the labor is mechanical and basic.
  • Repeated studies show that offering monetary rewards does not boost performance.
  • Workers are more productive when they are masters of their own time.

    Encontrar un propósito en lo que hacemos, dominar nuestras labores, y autonomía para hacerlas; son los mejores motivadores para hacer mejor las cosas día a día.
