Drive

Dan Pink

Why I recommend it

This is a useful book about what helps people care about their work. Having room to make decisions, improve, and do something meaningful matters.

What it changed in my thinking

We can’t ask people to take ownership while controlling every decision. They need room to learn and act.

Who it’s useful for

Managers, coaches, and people designing how teams work.

A tension or limitation

Purpose doesn’t replace fair pay, security, or healthy working conditions.
