Daniel Pink - Drive

Start: 01/21/2010 7:00 pm

Join Left Bank Books and Maryville University for this special "Maryville Talks Books" author event. Forget everything you thought you knew about how to motivate people--at work, at school, at home. It's wrong. As Daniel H. Pink explains in his new and paradigm-shattering book Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us, the secret to high performance and satisfaction in today's world is the deeply human need to direct our own lives, to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and our world. Drawing on four decades of scientific research on human motivation, Pink explores the mismatch between what science knows and what business does--and how that affects every aspect of our lives. Daniel Pink is the best-selling author of A Whole New Mind, The Adventures of Johnny Bunko, and Free Agent Nation. He provides analysis of business trends on various television networks and lectures to corporations, associations, and universities around the world on economic transformation and the new workplace. This event is free and open to the public. Books for signing must be purchased from Left Bank Books before or at the event.
