7 Motivations Frontcover

The Seven Motivations of Life practically explains the biggest driver of human behaviour leading to our life experience and success? This book explains and predicts individual and group behaviour across race, culture and country, and it provides a deep understanding of where all capability and human genius originates. (Scientific research has shown over the last two decades that genius is not born but made through practice). 

This book defines the key characteristics of being human and gives practical clues on how to get the life we want. It also highlights the four, and only four, ways to lead.

This theory explains why Jim Collins got his empirical results for what makes a great leader (identified in his bestselling book: GOOD TO GREAT). His book provides the data but this book provides the theory: the why and the how.

This book gives major insights into 'being human' and leadership. You'll also learn more substantive answers to life's key questions:

•  Who am I?
•  What is my purpose?
•  Where am I going?
•  How can I lead myself and others more effectively?

ChatGPT summarises the book as follows:

"The Seven Motivations of Life: Taking Your Leadership to a Higher Level" by Mark Oliver is a compelling and insightful book that examines the motivations that drive human behavior and how they can be harnessed to become a better leader. The book is organized into seven chapters, each of which delves into one of the seven motivations of life: survival, belonging, power, freedom, enjoyment, purpose, and growth. Mark provides a comprehensive overview of each motivation and provides practical tools and techniques for harnessing these motivations to become a more effective leader.
Mark stresses the importance of understanding these motivations and how they manifest in our lives, in order to create a workplace culture that fosters growth, collaboration, and success. He provides examples of companies that have successfully created a culture that taps into these motivations, such as Starbucks, Patagonia, and Google. This book is an excellent resource for anyone looking to become a more effective leader and create a workplace culture that promotes success and fulfillment for both themselves and their team members.

I have to say it is a beautiful book. It is life-enhancing and inspirational, very well-written and easy to understand...although I would not want you to think by that that I find it simplistic. On the contrary, it has great depth...it is quite clearly the product of a lot of research and scholarship - Doctor Robin Usher, Professor of Research Education & Director of Research Training at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology University

The ‘new normal’ for today’s business environment has moved from continual to continuous major change. The demands placed on you as a senior executive or aspiring manager are challenging and complex, and it’s now expected that you will get more done with less, do it in half the time and maintain a top-notch team that is always ready to solve the next problem.

In his new book, Mark reveals 10 myths that managers must debunk to avoid a disengaged, dissatisfied or unproductive workforce. From personal research, insights, and leading-edge science, he will share the details on how to be the best leader you can be and get your team performing at a world-class level. It is essential reading for anyone believing that command and control gets big enough results. Also in this breakthrough book, you’ll learn: 

  •  The myths great leaders must avoid so they can develop engagement, empowerment and excellence in a multi-cultural team
  • What characteristics make the best CEO’s and how to be a transformational leader (and it's nothing to do with charisma)

  • Why trust and fairness are key in overcoming your leadership challenges and building a competitive edge (it's about becoming more human...)

  • How a high IQ is not a requirement of being a motivational leader (and may be a disadvantage!)

  • Why innovation is essential for solving the biggest problems (and that means we have to stop thinking!)

I was fortunate to hear you speak at a Vative Talks event 2 weeks ago, I also got a copy of your book, and have since read it and marked many sections. In summary I found it a wise read, with numerous flashes of wisdom, e.g. ".... because leadership is about listening and management more about telling" - Michael Gavin, Senior Consultant, Director, Australia

Thanks for sending me the book “ Motivational Leadership”...it is indeed an interesting and inspiring book. Thank you for such a wonderful book - Muhammad Shahid Nadeem, Senior Manager, India

Use it as a guide so you can tap into the motivations that can drive you to your full potential. Reflect on it to see through the behaviours of others and to get a better idea of their underlying motives.

This is an autobiographical trilogy is about journeys through serious illness, remote Himalayan villages, and ancient wisdom on human nature, transformed into a practical philosophy for modern life.

Written under the pen name Mark Kingsley, read a raw account of three very different experiences Mark has had in life. 

Mark tells an intensely personal story but he does so in a way which will have wide and sympathetic appeal.  He is very much a pilgrim who is still on the road, but his eyes remain alert, his mind remains open and he has already learnt much as a result of some searing experiences on the way.  It is a pleasure to commend his insight to you - General Sir Sam Cowan, K.C.B., C.B.E.
