The Leader's Role in Motivation with Susan Fowler on The Remarkable Leadership Podcast

In today’s episode, I’m talking with Susan Fowler, who is the author of various by-lined articles, peer-reviewed research, and six books, including the bestselling Self Leadership and the One Minute Manager with Ken Blanchard. In her new best-seller, Why Motivating People Doesn’t Work…and What Does, she applies psychological discoveries that lay out a successful, research-based model and course of action to assist leaders as they guide their people towards the kinds of motivation that results in increased productivity and engagement, as well as a profound sense of purpose. If you’re tired of unsuccessful attempts to drive your team towards increased motivation, you won’t want to miss this powerful, insightful episode!

– Susan Fowler
