Proven tools to ignite your motivation for career success, and to make you a better leader. Many of us start out feeling good about our career choices-but over time, our energy flags. We all want success. We want to achieve. What is it, then, that keeps us from engaging wholeheartedly? What can we do to optimize our happiness, effectiveness, and influence in our careers? From the makers of the revolutionary self-insight tool DRiV comes a path to greater career fulfillment, based on the twenty-eight qualities that motivate behavior. By better understanding what drives and drains you, you can chart a path for more fulfilment and joy. But beyond yourself, understanding what drives and drains your colleagues gives you the tools to build and lead high-performing teams. Based on extensive, in-depth research, Driven Not Drained offers powerful tools for enhancing your self-awareness and capacity to work with and lead others. For ambitious people who want not only to stay engaged but also to thrive, this book is an invaluable development tool to help you reignite your motivation, purpose, and leadership. Learn about what drives (and drains) you at work, along with incisive development tips for each drive to create more job satisfaction and improve your performance. Along the way, you' ll also discover critical tips for working with others and leading them through the lens of their own drivers and drainers. The DRiV tool has been used to offer high-impact coaching and business consulting services across all industries and all levels, from preparing early-career individuals for new managerial assignments to team building at the C-suite level. Everyone deserves a career they are driven by, including you. Let' s get started, so that you can feel energized again about the days ahead.
