Summary: Wow! It will change the way you manage your staff! Great!
Comment: One of the very best, if not the best, books on motivating a group of people that I have ever read. I've just started implementing some of the stratagies and I'm already seeing positive results. The book is easy to read and understand.

Rating: 4
Summary: Easy read, gave positive pointers for motivating people.
Comment: Daniels writes in an easy-to-read style (I read the book on an airplane) and clearly conveys his main premise: people perform better with positive reinforcement than with negative punishment. I found his examples easy to relate to. Some were drawn from every-day life (e.g., motivators for wearing seatbelts). Many were drawn from a work context, which were more helpful to me. After I read it, I loaned it to my manager at work. Daniels explains his subject well, draws from abundant experience from his consulting work, and explains every-day people psychology in non-technical terms. He also discussed motivators (good) versus manipulation (bad). I appreciated the small size of the book and its light weight, which made it easy to carry on a business trip.

Rating: 5
Summary: The most "a-ha" moments I've had in a long time
Comment: Wow - This book, if you are willing to listen, will help you become aware of what is going on around you. At least, it did for me. Every couple of pages, I found myself saying "oh .. oh yes.. of course!" If nothing else, this book made me realize that I'm not crazy nor am I alone; that my environment, particularly the standard salary compensation system, really is de-motivating. No wonder I and so many others often struggle with procrastination!

The concepts are explained very well and he does a very nice job drawing out the implications to specific examples that most readers will immediately relate to. This book was one of the most satisfying reads I've had in a long time.
