After watching the Daniel Pink Drive Video it gave me a few motivational techniques that can be helpful as a leader. People are motivated when they have buy in to what they are doing. This gives them a purpose and passion that naturally keeps them motivated. It was interesting to hear that people will give more and expect less as long as they are doing something that they are passionate for. It was also interesting to hear that merit pay doesn't work in situations were the task that is being asked of someone is very complex and not straight forward. I feel that as an educator our job is very complex and after seeing this video, I do not think merit pay will make teachers better teachers.
