| Thinking, Fast and Slow | Must read by anyone who wishes to move an organization forward. Kahneman’s list of accomplishments is vast and his insight into how we think (or don’t) is critical information for every Scrum Master or team coach. If you’ve thought that people are illogical this book will help explain why. |
| Punished by Rewards : The Trouble with Gold Stars, Incentive Plans, A’s, Praise, and Other Bribes | We understand instinctively that the reward and punishment system is flawed but can’t often describe why.
