Manage episode 363080270 series 3441119
On Season 1 Episode 7:
Incentives are necessary drivers of motivation and we all have to get paid to perform our craft. But when money is tied to performance, weird things start to happen. Business owners, leaders and entrepreneurs need to understand when and how incentives can drive increased performance, and when they may actually be undermining performance, demotivating employees and creating a decline in performance.
In this episode, we dive into the research of how applying monetary incentives can undermine an employees intrinsic motivation to perform their skill at a high-level. We look at how organizations are taking the easy route, creating extrinsically motivated environments, producing checklist driven processes driven by looming deadlines, and in this pursuit of performance and productivity are actually creating the opposite effect - killing motivation and performance.
