Punished By Rewards: Twenty-Fifth Anniversary Edition: The Trouble with Gold Stars, Incentive Plans, A's, Praise, and Other Bribes

Are you tired of using rewards and incentives to control your children, students, or employees? Look no further than Punished By Rewards: Twenty-Fifth Anniversary Edition. This groundbreaking book, revised for its twenty-fifth anniversary, challenges the carrot-and-stick psychology that dominates our society. Alfie Kohn's updated reflections and research in the major new afterword will make you rethink our basic strategy of using rewards as motivation.

Countless parents, teachers, and managers have been persuaded by this eye-opening book that incentives may seem effective in the short term, but they ultimately fail and even cause lasting harm. Kohn draws from hundreds of studies to show that we actually produce inferior work when we are enticed with rewards and incentives. Instead of fostering genuine interest and commitment, these methods simply create temporary obedience.

If you're wondering how to create a better way of motivating and controlling people, Punished By Rewards offers practical strategies for parents, teachers, and managers. With a touch of humor and relatable examples, Kohn presents an argument that may be unsettling to hear, but impossible to dismiss. Say goodbye to the limited results achieved by rewards and punishments, and embrace a more effective alternative.
