Lessons from Norway on motivation and performance
Daniel Pink wondered how such a tiny country could win so many medals during the 2018 Winter Olympics. He scanned the coverage and isolated six uniquely Norwegian practices that might explain their success:

– Zero tolerance for jerks.
– Humility and respect are the highest virtues.
– Minimal prize money.
– In youth sports, athletes don’t keep score until they’re 13.
– Friday night is taco night.
