Description

How to apply motivational science and game theory to unlock employee effort and make great things happen There are three primary ways to motivate employees: you can change people's attitudes and beliefs through your power of persuasion, but it takes a lot of effort; you can offer monetary incentives, but that takes a lot of money; or you can design the work itself to be inherently motivating and rewarding, which takes lots of management savvy. Game Changer shows you how to get the most out of your people using option number three. Combining the best elements of three distinct fields--motivational science, game design, and agile management--this book shows you how to shift the motivational dynamics at work in your business, leading to sustained innovation and long-term positive results. * Offers a much-needed science-based approach to the issue of motivation in the workplace * Ideal for the changing nature of today's fast-paced work environments * Includes practical everyday advice for creating a highly productive and motivated workforce * Written by a motivation design expert and award-winning educator who has worked with a wide range of diverse multinational organisations An ideal resource for leaders of organisations and teams focused on creative, collaborative work, Game Changer shows you how to build a work culture that gets the best out of your people.
