Drive
Daniel H. Pink is the author of four thought-provoking books, including A Whole New Mind, a long-running New York Times bestseller, and Drive, the #1 New York Times bestseller. His works have been translated into 33 different languages.
The New York Times bestseller from the author of When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing that introduces readers to a paradigm-shifting new way of thinking about motivation.
Most people believe that rewarding people with money is the greatest way to inspire them—the carrot-and-stick technique. Daniel H. Pink believes this is a mistake (author of To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Motivating Others). In Drive, he contends that the key to excellent performance and satisfaction at work, school, and home is the very human drive to manage our own lives, learn and create new things, and do better by ourselves and our planet.
Pink shows the discrepancy between what science knows and what business does—and how this affects every part of life—using four decades of scientific research on human motivation. In a remarkable book that will change how we think and transform how we live, he investigates the three pillars of true motivation—autonomy, mastery, and purpose—and presents smart and startling ways for putting these into action.
