Free Agents: An Interview with Dan Pink
Written by
Introduction
“Free agents” aren’t found exclusively in sports any more. But free agents everywhere are highly paid and share a common motivation: to make their own choices and to make an impact. You are a free agent, as are those who work for you. And understanding this new game can give you a different perspective on your career as well as help you see how your employees think.
Dan Pink is contributing editor to Fast Company and former head speech writer for Al Gore. He was asked to keynote a conference we co-founded, and this interview followed that presentation.
Dan became a free agent himself, traveling the country interviewing individuals very much like our clients and wrapping his findings into a book published by Warner Books: Free Agent Nation: How America’s New Independent Workers are Transforming the Way we Live. In this interview, B is David C. Baker, and P is Dan Pink.]
