"One cannot lead a life that is truly excellent without feeling that one
belongs to something greater and more permanent than oneself."
When I caught up with my colleague Dee Reid she reminded me about Dan Pink's book Drive...
It's a great short read and again reinforces all the key messages about the journey to outstanding. Dan Pink argues that there are simply three keys; autonomy, mastery and purpose! He also argues that the carrot and stick approach has seven deadly flaws; it extinguishes motivation, it diminishes performance, it crushes creativity, it crowds out good behaviour, it encourages short cuts and cheating, it becomes addictive and it fosters short-term thinking.
