Habits and Rewards

In this course you will learn about the science of habits and rewards to motivate the people that you lead. There are a lot of myths about how hard it is to create habits, and a lot of misinformation about the best way to use rewards. This course clears up the myths and shows you how to apply the science in order to use habits and rewards effectively to motivate. 

You will learn:

• The three factors that make habits easy to create
• The science of conditioned responses that underlies habit formation
• Why rewards sometimes don't work or even backfire
• The science of using rewards effectively
• How schedules of reinforcement can have a big impact on whether and how rewards work
