Unleashing Human Potential at Work
Thursday, January 20th, 2011
I did a post earlier introducing MIX the Management Information Exchange, an exciting attempt to use open innovation to reinvent management for the 21st century. They are running a series of prizes, called M-prizes, to help focus the creativity of the crowd.
I submitted an entry, To Engage and Impassion Employees we Must Learn to Manage Mental Energy, to the M-Prize for Human Capital Management. Here is the summary:
“A key to unleashing human capability in the workplace is to develop a management discipline geared toward creating intangible as well as economic value by meeting the psychological needs of key stakeholders. Such a management discipline must be based on a modern scientific understanding of how minds work and will need to provide frameworks for estimating, measuring, creating and optimizing mental energy.”
Check it out and leave comments. There are currently 65 other entries that are worth a peak. I will summarize the results from a cognitive design perspective and do additional posts.
