Motivation

Motivate them...” It was an off the cuff remark from one of my students, but it stopped me cold. I stopped the presentation (Training and Development) and said “It’s time for Prof. Wright’s talk on motivation. “ Now, if you have not had the pleasure of listening to me:

A) go on and on and on about motivation and/or


B) talk about why Intrinsic motivation is so powerful and/or


C) say “You can’t motivate anyone to do anything, but you can influence and sway their behavior by changing their environment”


or you don’t believe any of it this, take a look at this great YouTube clip:
