Daniel M. Cable (@DanCable1) is a Professor of Organizational Behavior at London Business School. He is a two-time winner of the "Best Article in Organizational Behavior" from the Academy of Management and has been ranked among the top 25 most influential management scholars in the world.
"In his book, Cable shows how organizations have constrained
seeking systems since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, how to
activate employees' seeking systems, and how leaders can use this
change to help employees (and organizations) reach their full
potential." -- TD magazine (Association for Talent Development)"In
this lively book, the organisational behavioural expert suggests
small changes and interventions by leaders to encourage employees
to experiment and gain a sense of purpose to make Sunday nights
happy again." -- Financial TimesAdvance Praise for Alive at
Work:Adam Grant, New York Times--bestselling author of Give and
Take, Originals, and Option B (with Sheryl Sandberg)--"If you care
about improving the quality of life at work, you'll enjoy this
lively book. Daniel Cable presents a bold vision and practical
ideas for breathing life into every organization."Daniel H. Pink,
author of Drive and To Sell Is Human--
"In this smart, insightful book, Daniel Cable argues that too many
organizations suppress our innate, biological drive to learn and
grow--and thereby leave us feeling listless and unproductive. The
solution, Cable says, is a set of small redesigns to bring
organizations into harmony with our true selves. Well-researched
and eminently practical, Alive at Work is an essential read for
leaders at every level."Bruce Daisley, Vice President, Europe,
Middle East, and Africa, Twitter--
"Once every ten years a book comes along that lights the way for
us. Not since Daniel Pink's Drive has a book so clearly illuminated
what the future of leadership should look like."Gary Hamel, author
of The Future of Management and What Matters Now--
"Daniel Cable lends an energetic and inspirational voice to a
problem that nags leaders: How do we encourage people to inject
more passion into what they do? Dan's deep insights will make you
think about engagement and motivation in an entirely new
way."William P. Lauder, Executive Chairman, The Estee Lauder
Companies--
"Alive at Work offers an illuminating look into our minds and
emotions--what inspires us, what lights a fire inside of us, and
what drives us to achieve more at work and in our lives. Daniel
Cable's eye-opening insights will help leaders unleash the passion
and purpose inside of others."David Fairhurst, Executive Vice
President and Chief People Officer, McDonald’s Corporation--
"The principles of managing people have changed little since the
Industrial Revolution. Daniel Cable has blown those principles
apart to create a playbook for the next revolution--the People
Revolution."
