Daniel H. Pink
Daniel H. Pink is the author of several provocative, bestselling books about the changing world of work.
His latest is Drive:The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us,
which uses 40 years of behavioral science to overturn the conventional
wisdom about human motivation and offer a more effective path to high
performance. Early reviews say that "Pink's analysis–and new model–of
motivation offers tremendous insight into our deepest nature" (Publishers Weekly)
and call the book "important reading . . . an integral addition to a
growing body of literature calling for a radical shift in how
businesses operate" (Kirkus).
A Whole New Mind: Why Right-Brainers Will Rule the Future charts the rise of right-brain thinking in modern economies and
describes the six abilities individuals and organizations must master
in an outsourced, automated age. A Whole New Mind is a long-running New York Times and BusinessWeek bestseller that has been translated into 21 languages.
The Adventures of Johnny Bunko: The Last Career Guide You'll Ever Need is the first American business book in the Japanese comic format known as 'Manga' and the only graphic novel ever to become a BusinessWeek bestseller. Illustrated by award-winning artist Rob Ten Pas, The Adventures of Johnny Bunko has been translated into 14 languages.
Dan's first book, Free Agent Nation: The Future of Working for Yourself, was a Washington Post bestseller that Publishers Weekly says "has become a cornerstone of employee-management relations."
His articles on business and technology appear in many publications, including the New York Times, Harvard Business Review, Fast Company, and Wired,
where he is a contributing editor. He has provided analysis of business
trends on CNN, CNBC, ABC, NPR, and other networks in the U.S. and
abroad. He also lectures to corporations, associations, and
universities around the world on economic transformation and the new
workplace.
A free agent himself, Dan held his last real job in the White House,
where he served from 1995 to 1997 as chief speechwriter to Vice
President Al Gore. He also worked as an aide to U.S. Labor Secretary
Robert Reich and in other positions in politics and government.
He received a BA, with honors, from Northwestern University, where
he was elected to Phi Beta Kappa, and a JD from Yale Law School. To his
lasting joy, he has never practiced law.
Dan lives in Washington, DC, with his wife and their three children.
