How To Motivate Your Staff

Why is it important as a manager to consider motivation? After all, you pay staff to complete a set of tasks, which they already do very well. Employees are there to work. You can give them the same job to do every day and they will do it to your satisfaction almost as a matter of routine. Motivate them properly however and you will have successful, happy staff exceeding your expectations. Motivation is about giving people energy so they approach their work each day feeling fresh, interested and valuable. Instead of leaving when they need a new challenge, they will stay and continue to enrich the company with their experience both old and new. Productivity will increase as they enjoy their jobs, strive to impress you and take on more responsibility. A manager should therefore carefully consider how to keep the workforce motivated as it in the best interests of the employees and the company.
