You can’t motivate people, but you can help people learn to motivate themselves. This second edition includes new material on inspiring self-motivation in remote workers and a distributed workforce. What if the answer to motivating people is to stop trying to motivate them? Leadership researcher, consultant, and coach Susan Fowler says that overtly trying to motivate your employees can be frustrating for everyone involved and doesn’t work in the long term. You can’t force people to be motivated—but you can help them find the inner commitment that increases productivity and engagement and gives them a profound sense of purpose and fulfillment. The second edition of this bestseller includes a new chapter on remote and hybrid work as well as updated content on postpandemic management, DEIJ initiatives, and the Great Resignation. Fowler uses the Self-Determination Theory to show the positive effects of optimal motivation on people’s vitality, productivity, and creativity and lays out a tested model and course of action for leaders. In addition, she includes compelling examples and anecdotal evidence from applying her techniques in organizations and with individuals worldwide. Fowler shows leaders how to get out of the way and encourage their people to self-motivate and foster personal excellence.

In 2017, twenty-five-year-old Susan Fowler published a blog post detailing her experiences of sexual harassment and retaliation as an entry-level engineer at Uber. This post went viral, leading to the ousting of Uber's CEO and over twenty employees, igniting a movement against sexual misconduct in Silicon Valley that extended to Hollywood. Aware of the risks women faced when speaking out about harassment prior to the #MeToo era, Susan’s memoir reveals her determination to challenge the status quo. Growing up in poverty in rural Arizona and denied a formal education, she defied the odds to earn an Ivy League degree. Confronted with a toxic culture of sexism and abuse at Uber, she initially sought change through collaboration with other women. When that failed, she bravely took her story public, facing significant backlash from Uber as they attempted to intimidate and discredit her. The impact of her words resonated throughout Silicon Valley and beyond, ultimately guiding her toward achieving her dreams. This powerful narrative showcases a woman's relentless fight for justice and serves as an inspiration for anyone confronting inequality in their own workplaces.

"Susan Fowler was just twenty-five years old when her blog post exposing sexual harassment at Uber riveted the nation, toppling the company's leadership and helping to spark the #MeToo movement. But long before she worked as a software engineer, Fowler had been struggling against the entrenched forces that prevent so many from pusuing their dreams. Raised in poverty with little formal education, she nevertheless propelled herself to the Ivy League, and to sought-after jobs in Siliocon Valley. In the male-dominated realms of science and technology, from her undergraduate physics lab to the startup world, she continually faced gender-based discrimination and mistreatment. Fortunately, this meant that by the time she got to Uber, she knew how to stand up for herself. When the company refused to take steps to address its toxic workplace culture, she knew she had to speak out - no matter the consequences"--Page 4 of cover
