Catalyst Conference- Daniel Pink

Daniel Pink is the best-selling author of Drive and A Whole New Mind. Here is some of what he shared at Catalyst:

In the workplace, people are really attuned to fairness.

Once you pay people enough, you take the issue of money off the table. Additional money does not significantly affect performance.

People connect in the workplace around three main areas:
Autonomy- People engage by choice. When people talk about their favorite boss, they mention freedoms.
Mastery- People desire to get better. For people to get better, there must be feedback.
Purpose- There are limits to the profit motive; it is insufficient.

The problem with annual performance evaluations is that they are annual.

The workplace is a feedback desert for the millennial generation when they are a feedback generation.
