A Memo to Dan Pink and Friends: Incentives Do Not Undermine Employee Motivation!

The field of employee rewards is filled with mythology about what research has to say. 

Unfortunately, too many of us are guided by mythology spread by those without a strong foundation in the field or an informed grasp of what the research actually tells us.

Time for a little myth-busting!  And here to help us is Dr. Gerry Ledford, Senior Research Scientist at the Center for Effective Organizations at the Marshall School of Business (USC) and a leading expert on the topic.
