Sure, it had some great information about motivation, but it didn't seem like things we already didn't know. Very business/marketing oriented, but that's to be expected from Pink. If you're an educator reading it, be sure to take things with a grain of salt and worry about good teaching, not just the big inspirational motivational approach. Another day, another disappointing "personal development" book. You'd think I'd know better by now, but I still persist. My bad, I guess. I had assumed there would be practical advice on how to motivate myself in a variety of circumstances. Yet upon picking up this book, it quickly became apparent that this was not the case. The content felt very repetitive and unhelpful when it came to understanding how to really drive results in my own life, or even in my career. The focus was on business -- and perhaps if you're a CEO looking for new ways to motivate your people, you might find something of use here (though if you've read more than a couple of books in this genre, all the advice offered here will only serve to reinforce what you already know.) In short: don't bother. Nice book. It dives into the science behind what truly motivates us and why traditional motivators like money and rewards aren't always effective. Instead, Pink suggests that autonomy, mastery, and purpose are the key elements that really get people going. He backs up his argument with some really interesting examples and research studies. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

HTML:The New York Times bestseller that gives readers a paradigm-shattering new way to think about motivation from the author of When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing Most people believe that the best way to motivate is with rewards like money??the carrot-and-stick approach. That's a mistake, says Daniel H. Pink (author of To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Motivating Others). In this provocative and persuasive new book, he asserts that the secret to high performance and satisfaction-at work, at school, and at home??is the deeply human need to direct our own lives, to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and our world. Drawing on four decades of scientific research on human motivation, Pink exposes the mismatch between what science knows and what business does??and how that affects every aspect of life. He examines the three elements of true motivation??autonomy, mastery, and purpose-and offers smart and surprising techniques for putting these into action in a unique book that will change how we think and transform Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
