Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Employee?

Chapter Chapter Six in The Road to Audacity, 2003, pp 77-94 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In dealing with volatile, uncertain conditions, how do organisations become audacious? We have argued that audacity requires motivational connectedness - the opportunity to achieve success in a broad range of states; a ‘confidence frame’ to feel able to access all eight motivational states, and a real awareness of how things are evolving. To talk about ‘audacious’ organisations, we need to focus on the conditions that foster audacity among their people - after all, organisations are defined, in the end, by the actions of their people.
