How to Motive Change using Thrill Based rather than Fear induced Strategies – The Science
Episode description
Alex shares great content about how to bring about change in others and why gain based strategies mean people take action to bring about change.
Most of the time everyone is looking to change in some way so affecting change in others is all about using a strategy that results in action and gain-based change strategies are the most successful.
Listen in and hear all about the change strategies that motivate us to take action with Alex sharing great examples of how change works to bring action in people
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Usually, strategies for change are fear-based but there is little evidence that fear-based strategies work
- With fear people’s response is to either freeze or take flight
- People listen and gravitate to positive news and positive strategies motivate people
- The social incentive is a strategy that works as people like to be part of a group
- People want to see progress immediately so highlighting progress is a motivator for change
- Everyone wants to know the processes they need to get to and to be in control
- Change is something within your control
- Affecting change in people with fear-based strategies is less successful
- Motivate change through gain based strategies and people will take action
- With gain based strategies it’s the thrill of gain and the potential rewards that motivate people
- The thrill of the gain brings action and small gains over time become a habit that brings results
BEST MOMENTS
‘The potential and thrill of the gain and the sense of reward is a successful approach to bringing change’
