Description
Disengagement at work is a widespread problem, with many employees feeling unfulfilled and disconnected from their roles. Social psychologist Daniel M. Cable argues that this disengagement isn't a motivational issue, but rather a biological one.
According to Cable, humans are designed to crave exploration, experimentation, and learning, which can be stifled by routine and repetition in the workplace. However, with small changes, leaders can help people reach their full potential and create environments that motivate creativity and engagement.
This book offers practical guidance on how to build creative workspaces, enhance connection to one's work and customers, and create personalized experiences that foster a sense of purpose. With real-world examples from Cable's research, Alive at Work provides an inspirational guide for leaders looking to tap into the passion and potential of their team members.
