Do you know how to motivate people?

buzz this



I saw this great animated video presentation on the blog of Vaughan Merlyn and couldn't withstand sharing it here.



It is an RSA Animate’s remarkable adaptation of Daniel Pink’s presentation to the Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce (RSA) on motivation.


Just like Vaughan I can point a few reasons why I was taken by this video:

1. It is an excellent presentation skill example with all the tricks like hierarchical structuring, repeating of the main ideas, illustrative examples, etc.,etc.

2. Science made simple. Unless you are a scientist yourself, after typing a keyword "motivation" in any scientific search engine, you will drown in the sea of sophisticated research papers of any tinges from researchers of any caliber. This presentation gives an example how you can use the power of science and bring it to mere mortals.

3. The power of animation. With the magic of handwritten animation those 10 minutes have passed for me like in the twinkling of an eye.
