The Power of Intrinsic Motivation

Fabulous presentation by Dan Pink on the power of intrinsic motivation and the utter goofiness of "carrot and stick" methodologies to improve business performance. 18 minutes. Worth every second.

Great blog.

It's a good clip this one - although it did make me wonder whether Pink's observations applied equally between incentives to generate radical new concepts (e.g. time, self-direction), and motivation to evolve and drive an idea to market (more entrepreneurial in nature). I'm not so sure.
