Daniel Pink on "The Science of Motivation"
The fundamental drive to do things is: Because they matter.
Autonomy: ability to direct our own lives.
Mastery: ability to get better
Purpose: yearning to do something bigger then ourselves.
He also mentions the "Results Only Work Environment" (ROWE) as providing 20% improvements in productivity. My immediate thought was what is the impact from the greater autonomy v. simply being a change in the environment, or even the Hawthorne Effect where people improve productivity simply because they're being studied.
Sir Ken Robinson on "Do Schools Kill Creativity?"
Interestingly while most people criticize schools for being organized to turnout out workers for the industrial economy, he criticizes them as trying to produce university professors.
