This is one of the things I love about studying work. Getting things done feels good to people. Reaching meaningful goals, that feels great. - Molly Sands
In your next meeting ask your team why you're doing the project. Ask everyone to tell you. Probably everyone in that group does not have the same description or understanding of what you're trying to do, why you're trying to do it, and what success looks like.... It sounds like the most obvious thing in the entire world. And you get into real teams and it doesn't happen enough. - Molly Sands
You said, people get more satisfaction from checking things off of their To-Do list than they do praise from a colleague or praise from their boss. -
They totally do. They absolutely do. - Molly Sands
Scale decision making
More, better decisions, faster.

There are ways of working that are better for people, better for organizations, better for the bottom line, better for the planet.
Atlassian's shining a light on the path.
