What it does
Ways to raise drive in your team or product that rely on choice, skill growth and purpose instead of bonuses and threats. Each idea comes with a score so you can see where you stand. The skill uses the autonomy, mastery and purpose model. It starts at 5, adds a point for each of five yes answers about your setup, and subtracts 2 if an if-then reward is doing the motivating, since those can crowd out interest in the work itself. A score of 9 or 10 means all three are present. At 3 or below, rewards and orders are doing the work. You get the score, the failed checks and specific fixes.
