When someone talks about motivation in the military, we might picture a harsh drill sergeant demanding 20 pushups -- or else. But the armed forces have developed much more sophisticated means of inspiring hard work and outstanding performances than the movies might lead you to believe. It’s no wonder, then, that those who serve often go on to successful careers as leaders in a wide range of other industries, bringing with them the management skills and insights they learned during their time in the military. On this episode of Incentive: What Motivates, just in time for Veterans Day, we speak with two incentive and motivation experts who also are veterans of the U.S. armed forces.
