A book that will change how you think and transform how you live.
Forget everything you thought you knew about how to motivate people – at work, at school, at home. It is wrong. As Daniel H. Pink explains in his paradigm-shattering book Drive, the secret to high performance and satisfaction in today’s world is the deeply human need to direct our own lives, to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and the world. Along the way, he takes us to companies that are enlisting new approaches to motivation, and introduces us to the scientists and entrepreneurs who are pointing a bold way forward.

Where does Drive rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
In the middle for informationWho was your favorite character and why?
no charactersHow did the narrator detract from the book?
narration was goodWhat did you learn from Drive that you would use in your daily life?
sadly the book repeated itself a lot, and the main facts don't weigh up in light of better understanding of simple behavioural psychologyAny additional comments?
Internal and external motivation sound great but at the heart they are simple conditioned behaviours - not the conclusion the book came toNot quite as straight forward

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes this is number one on my list when someone asks me for a book recommendation. It will change how you manage your team and your work life. My productivity increased significantly, yet I enjoy my job more. That's like hearing you can lose weight and eat all the cake you want. I have such a happy work environment now. I can't tell you how wonderful it is to look forward to going in to work. I recommend this to anyone who is willing to take a risk on being fulfilled at work.What other book might you compare Drive to and why?
The Willpower Instinct by Kelly Mcgonigal, and Habit by Charles Duhigg.What insight do you think you’ll apply from Drive?
You will read this and then you will think, my company wont implement these strategies or be willing to give it a try. Really? 2 hours a week spent on personal projects and another 2 on learning skills related to the job? Well, I implemented these, and we now finish more projects, faster, with greater success when implemented. That's right. The 2 hours a week learning, means that my team is always on the forefront of digital marketing. The 2 hours spent on the personal project means that their ideas have voices. They feel like contributing to the company as a whole. Loyalty, team bonding all of that happens. Gosh, this book is fantastic. Give it a try if you are a dissatisfied employee or a manager at her wits end.Best Productivity Book I've Ever Read
