The Motivation Code
Discover the Hidden Forces That Drive Your Best Work
Book • 2020
In this book, Todd Henry presents a new framework for understanding what motivates us and why.
Drawing on decades of research and interviews with over 100,000 people, Henry identifies twenty-seven unique 'motivational themes,' each with its own DNA. These themes help explain why some people are driven by a race against the clock, others by team involvement, and others by public recognition.
The book teaches readers how to decode their Core Motivation to make informed decisions, choose career paths, and transform their work into work they love.
It also provides insights into how each motivational type finds meaning, their shadow sides, and how to interact effectively in the workplace.
