Episode 47 with LINDSAY KOHLER: The Dangling Carrots of Employee Motivation

Lindsay Kohler is a reformed communication consultant who turned to behavioral science to figure out why we do what we do — especially when it comes to poor health and financial decisions. With over a decade of employee engagement consulting experience with Fortune 500 companies and an MSc in Behavioral Science from The London School of Economics, she uses that experience to help bridge the gap between theory and action to maximize performance. Lindsay's thoughts on employee engagement have appeared in many HR publications, such as Workforce, HRDirector, and CorpComms Magazine. She is currently the lead behavioral scientist at U.K. consultancy scarlettabbott.
