Drive: The Surprising Truth about What Motivates Us by Daniel H. Pink

challenging hopeful informative reflective fast-paced

4.5

"Do what you love" backed with data. Excellent, informed rebuttal to the carrot-and-stick motivation at work that has governed employment as long as I can remember. Of course, skeptic that I am, I will note the book doesn't point out that most workplaces will use your desire for "doing work with meaning" or "loving what you do" as leverage, nor does it address what to do in that case. But the existence of the book gives me a glimmer of hope that the world of work will have to wise up.
