worker is a productive worker. The environment is also a big factor to
motivate people because it alone shapes a person’s behavior. Needs are

then individual basic needs will not rise again. Likeability is a key to one’s job

ENUMERATE AND EXPLAIN THE MAIN PARTS OF

E
mployees are internal customers, in a sense. You want the service
and support to be the best in the world, because that’s how it needs
to be to keep your customers returning to you. Here are a few basics
that can be applied in workplace to ensure that you are doing everything you
can to motivate your staff:
1. Ask them how they like their job, they will tell you

2. Active listening is a vital skill to the survival of any workplace. The vast
majority of resignations are a result of employees not feeling appreciated.

3. Show them that you notice their hard work. Let them know that you
appreciate what they’ve done, and do it publicly. People want others to know
when they have worked hard, because it gives them a feeling of satisfaction

4. Buy them something. It doesn’t have to be expensive; lunch will do in a


touch and coffee in the morning. If they perform well, get them a gift
certificate

5. Don’t lock your ability to have fun let them play around a little. If it starts
to get out of hand, that’s why you are there. Bring it back to being
productive fun. Make a game out of accomplishing a task, enjoy yourself, you
spend more time at work

6. we need to compete against one another, to prove to ourselves and


everyone out there that we can do it, and do it the best.

7. Be Friendly With Everyone, But Don’t Become Friends. Favoritism is a hard


allegation to live down, especially if it’s true. Don’t put yourself in a position
that could result in an environment of favoritism. Unfairness in the workplace
leads to turn-over.

8. Don’t keep all the information to yourself. Let them know where they
stand often; this will keep them in the circle. One of the most common
downfalls of any organization is a lack of communication. It’s tough trying to
be motivated in the face of goals that you can’t measure.

9. Don’t make the mistake of thinking you always have the best idea. When
managers don’t listen to their employees and include them in the action
planning process, they feel like their opinions don’t matter. When your
employees feel like their opinions don’t matter, start putting up everyone
likes to feel like they can effect change, too.

WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED FROM THE ARTICLE?

I
f your business has a small number of employees that you can supervise
and control easily, then you will probably have an idea what motivates
each person. Therefore not have to use the appraisal process to
determine such factors. Increasing motivation through financial
rewards is a method that is most common when businesses rely on
it. You may even introduce extreme benefits instead of increasing
wages or salaries such as company cars, private health, or interest-
free loans from the business. These benefits are often valued higher
than wage increases and can be less expensive for the business to
provide the quantity of the output of employees.
Employees may also see factors aside from money as prime motivators. Non-
financial incentives are more effective in your business; there are many
forms in which they can be given. You can increase motivation by giving
employees more responsibility so that they feel their contribution is more
valuable to the business and that their role is of higher importance. Further,
you can promise the chance of promotion if they reach a certain standard or
target. A huge motivator is job enlargement, you can enrich an employee’s
job by expanding their tasks to give a higher level of responsibility in the
nature of work they do some things do increase the level of efficiency in
employees by reducing job dissatisfaction.

effectively to incentives that offer personal. Others are motivated by other
values and needs. An employee survey, performed annually, can tell you a
lot about what's motivating for people in your workplace, and especially,
what decreases their motivation. Leading small employee focus groups can

members every single day works, too. Once you decide to identify what your
