2. Make People Matter: What 26 Experts Know About Motivation, Recognition and Engagement

Why do people give their best at work, and why do so many disengage? Only about a third of employees are engaged, and money barely moves the needle. In this video, 26 experts on motivation, employee recognition and engagement explain what really drives people and what great leaders do differently. You'll learn why disengagement is a problem money can't fix, what really drives us, how to give recognition that works, how to celebrate people, why trust comes first, how purpose ignites a team, what kills engagement, what bosses nobody wants to leave do, and how to motivate yourself. We close with a practical 30-day plan you can start tomorrow. Ideas from Zach Mercurio (The Power of Mattering), Susan Fowler, Paul White (The 5 Languages of Appreciation in the Workplace), Amy Edmondson (The Fearless Organization), Paul Zak (Trust Factor), Bob Chapman (Everybody Matters) and 20 more experts, explained step by step. 🇪🇸 Versión en español:    • 2. Que la gente importe: lo que 26 especia...   ⏱️ CHAPTERS 00:00 Introduction: The custodian who read the dictionary 01:58 Chapter 1: A problem money can't fix 04:10 Chapter 2: What really drives us 07:28 Chapter 3: Recognition that works 11:05 Chapter 4: Celebrating people 14:00 Chapter 5: Trust comes first 17:41 Chapter 6: A purpose that ignites 20:41 Chapter 7: What kills engagement 24:09 Chapter 8: Bosses nobody wants to leave 27:12 Chapter 9: How to motivate yourself 29:39 Chapter 10: Your 30-day plan 📚 BOOKS MENTIONED (affiliate links) 1.
