In this episode, we explore The Business of Motivation and what drives today’s workforce.
Our guests, Jess Holt from Forty1’s Behavioural Science division and Cesar Garcia, Executive Director of Global Communications at Merck (known as MSD outside the US and Canada), share insights with host Richelle Feigin from a comprehensive study of over 2,600 participants across the UK and US.
We discuss key findings such as the importance of motivation and its impact on business performance, alongside the five motivational archetypes that shape employee engagement. Jess guides us through the strategic levers that organisations can use to boost motivation, while Cesar shares real-world examples of how communication, purpose, and values can unite teams, even during times of change.
Join us as we uncover practical strategies to cultivate a motivated, productive workforce. Tune in to gain valuable insights for driving engagement and aligning your team for success!
