Every decision we make is guided by incentives. From financial incentives to social and political incentives – how we are rewarded shapes how we behave and the choices we make. Have you ever thought about why you do what you do, or why decisions get made a certain way? We're digging into these questions in this special three-part podcast series that we’re calling, “What Drives Us?”
In the first two episodes of this series, we spoke with academics and education advocates to explore how incentives in education and government impact the lives of kids and the adults who serve them - from educators and health care providers, to social workers, to guidance counselors and coaches.
Today, in the final episode of this special series, Jill is joined by Valerie Jarrett, CEO of the Obama Foundation and former White House Senior Advisor to President Barack Obama, to talk about Valerie’s extraordinary career and how government leaders can use incentives to drive change.
