Understanding motivation is key to increasing your impact and satisfaction at work. That&#8217;s why I want to introduce you to a game-changing practice from my latest book, &#8220;I am a Software Engineer and I am in Charge,&#8221; co-authored with&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/ACoAACOBDeABbAsaB3voyhFn4-jg4iAvmK7YyDw\">Michael Doyle<\/a>.<br>&#x1f3af; Introducing: Moving Motivators<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#x1f914; What Is It?<br>Moving Motivators is a simple yet powerful exercise that uses a deck of 10 cards. Each card represents an intrinsic motivation like Curiosity, Acceptance, Power, and so on. The aim? To uncover what drives you and your teammates. The practice comes from&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/management-30\/\">Management 3.0<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/ACoAAACMMS8B-IiXIEMJ1dANoKGsPf0wbU-f7V8\">Jurgen Appelo<\/a>&#8216;s book Management Workout!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#x1f31f; Why Use It?<br>This practice is a lens to view the world through different perspectives. What&#8217;s crucial for you might be trivial for someone else.
