Why motivation and self-efficacy drives thriving software teams

Don’t overlook the importance of self-efficacy and sustaining motivation through challenges as qualities of thriving software development teams.

What do highly productive software teams, professional athletes, and valedictorians all have in common?  The social science of high achievement tells us it’s not about “talent,” “never messing up,” or even “luck.” Instead, people consistently outperform when they are able to stay motivated through challenges. To do this, we use a secret weapon that cultivates motivation: a powerful sense of self-efficacy. 

At Pluralsight Flow’s Developer Success Lab, we study how the most innovative software teams work, learn, and thrive.
