Listen "#43: When financial incentives don’t work "
Episode Synopsis
Does money motivate you? For most of us, we’d probably say yes. We work 9-5, five days a week for money. We can’t live without it.

My guest today, Dr Michael Hallsworth managing director of the BIT North American unit shares a different point of view.
