5. Rewards Money
Fear
Higher pay and bonuses resulted in better
performance only if the task consisted of
basic, mechanical skills. If the task involved
cognitive skills, decision-making, creativity,
or higher-order thinking, higher pay resulted
in lower performance.

Performance
To motivate employees who work beyond
basic tasks, give them these three factors to
increase performance and satisfaction:
• Autonomy: our desire to be self directed.
• Mastery: the urge to get better skills.
• Purpose: the desire to do something that
has meaning and is important.*

* Casali, Giacoma

Learner
Find and Discover
The proactive professional will find
the next thing to do even if nobody
will assign a task, a direction or a
project. The reason is that this
person is more involved and cares
about the end goal of the company,
the unit or the team.*
It’s the thing on which we are
evaluated, the set of activities we
do, the subjects we learnt at school
and university and so on.*
This is when you can trust
someone that, once they start
working on a task, it will be done.
In other words, this trait highlights
the ability of being trustworthy
and taking ownership of
activities.*
A person with this trait will keep
moving forward, keeping up to
date and growing the skills.*
* Casali, Giacoma
11. Going Skunk
Today, "going skunk" is often used to describe the creation of an especially enriched environment
that is intended to help a small group of individuals design a new idea by escaping routine
organizational procedures.
There are four skunk segrets:
1. Big Goals
2. Extreme Isolation
3. Rapid Iteration
4. Intrinsic Rewards
* P. Diamandis
12. Big Goals Extreme Isolation Rapid Iteration Intrinsic Rewards
Big goals work best when there is
and alignment between an
individual's values and the desired
outcome goals.
Isolation stimulates risk taking,
encourages weird and wild ideas,
and acts as a counterforce to
organizational inertia.
Adopt an experimental approach,
emphasises last feedback loops.
As the unofficial motto of Silicon
Valley goes, "Fail early, fail often,
fail forward."
Gaining autonomy, mastery, and
purpose are motivators enough to
make us work to our highest
potential
