Motivation

What motivates one employee to be committed to their role and be driven to attain goals may not necessarily motivate the next. Motivation can be achieved through positive workplace environments, learning and development opportunities, tangible and emotional rewards and many other incentives. An organisation must understand what makes its employees tick and know how to continually inspire and engage.

14 Highly Effective Ways to Motivate Employees

You believe in your company wholeheartedly. There’s an entrepreneurial fire burning strong inside that motivates you to work harder each day. Unfortunately, the same cannot always be said about your employees. In a 2015 SHRM Employee Job Satisfaction and Engagement survey, only 69 percent of employees felt they were consistently putting all their effort into their work.
If you’ve tried a variety of incentives but are still seeing the negative side effects of low motivation, you’re not alone. Sometimes even the best managers have to think outside the box to find creative and reliable ways to motivate their employees.
Here are 14 motivational techniques that you can try with your employees:

Gamify and Incentivize
Let Them Know You Trust Them
Set Smaller Weekly Goals
Give Your Employees Purpose
Radiate Positivity
Be Transparent
Motivate Individuals Rather Than the Team
Learn What Makes Each Employee Tick
Reward Based on Feedback
Prioritize Work-Life Balance
Have an Open-Door Policy
Let Them Lead
Show Them the Bigger Picture
Create Recognition Rituals
