Knowing how to motivate your workforce makes you a powerful manager. Here are three things you
should know if you want to become better at motivation:
• What level of motivation is needed? You can’t expect every employee to give 110 percent all the
time. Analyze the work your people do so you can set realistic priorities.
• What motivates each employee? Get to know your people well enough to understand what needs
they’re trying to satisfy at work—financial, emotional, etc.
• What can you do? Think about what you have to offer as motivation: praise, time off, mentoring,
and so forth.
