Description
The Progress Principle: Using Small Wins to Ignite Joy, Engagement, and Creativity at Work by Teresa Amabile and Steven Kramer. Understanding what drives employee motivation and engagement is crucial for effective management. This book reveals how seemingly mundane workday events can either boost or undermine inner work life. By examining nearly 12,000 diary entries from 238 employees in 7 companies, the authors identify the key factors that foster progress and enhance inner work life. The authors explain how managers can remove obstacles to progress, such as meaningless tasks and toxic relationships, and activate forces that enable progress, including catalysts and nourishers. Honest examples from the companies studied illustrate the practical insights needed to maximize employee performance.
