In this provocative and persuasive new book, he asserts that the secret to high performance and satisfaction-at work, at school, and at home-is the deeply human need to direct our own lives, to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and our world. Drawing on four decades of scientific research on human motivation, Pink exposes the mismatch between what science knows and what business does-and how that affects every aspect of life.

Imagine three scenarios: In the first, you see a review of Daniel Pink's new book, Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us on MoneyWatch.com and you feel compelled to read it because your boss really loves books by Daniel Pink, the bestselling author of A Whole New Mind. And if you don't really love books by Pink, you're going to be on the receiving end of squinty-eyed glares from said boss that translate to, 'you have just moved from my inner circle to the professional Siberia that is (cue ominous bass notes from ) my outer circle.' We'll call this the 'stick' scenario. In the second scenario, I'm paying you 10 bucks to read my review. Il-2 Sturmovik Full here.
(Which you're now 120 words into, so you've already earned $1.38, on a pro rata basis.) That'll be the 'carrot' scenario. If you've been carrot-and-sticked before — and who hasn't? — this probably feels familiar. But consider a third scenario: Let's say you read my review simply because you want to learn more about motivation, because you're determined to really understand it, and because you feel that there's some greater value in understanding motivation generally. We'll call that the 'this is what Daniel Pink's new book is about' scenario. Pink explains intrinsic motivation as a natural evolution from earlier modes of motivation. The earliest, which Pink calls “motivation: 1.0,” is a biological drive — everything you’d find at the bottom of.
Like all other animals, we’re motivated by a need for survival. But as humans became more social and survival needs changed, “motivation 2.0” emerged and we began to respond to external motivators, or rewards and punishments. Pink maintains that conventional wisdom about what facilitates peak performance and optimal creativity is grounded in assumptions we make about motivation 2.0. We’re all familiar with bonuses and disciplinary action as modern management tools.
But they don’t always work. In fact, they’re far less effective for people who are driven by “motivation 3.0” — an intrinsic motivation characterized by the desire to have autonomy over what one is doing, to master it in some way and to do in the service of some higher purpose. Less Cash, More Creativity? Pink argues that intrinsic motivation leads to more creative outcomes over the long term in part because people who are intrinsically motivated are more persistent. As an illustration, Pink describes an experiment conducted by Karl Duncker in the 1930s: Subjects were given a candle, a box of tacks and a book of matches resting on a table flush against a wall and asked to affix the candle to the wall in way that would prevent wax from dripping onto the table. Another psychologist, Sam Glucksberg, repeated the experiment, but told one group of subjects they would receive $5 for completing the task quickly and told another group that they were merely being observed to see how long the task would take. Somewhat counter-intuitively, the group without the cash incentive completed the task faster.
