As HR practitioners, we strive to better understand what drives us and others to give of our best. An we spend a great amount of effort and resources putting in place “initiatives” to improve motivation. But how effective are these? Do they focus on and address the real motivational drivers? Daniel Pink in his book Drive, hits the mark – the truth about what motivates us is not surprising. But we keep ignoring the truth? Have a listen to this video and ask yourself to what extend your approach addresses the real motivational drivers.
