Do not think that money alone will lead to job satisfaction. There are other very crucial ingredients to motivation which the manager with good leader ship qualities considers in order to grow and maintain their healthy business whilst ensuring that their staff help achieve the goals of the company.

 

 

Motivate workers to achieve their best and the best is what they shall achieve.

 

• Delegate adequate amounts of responsibility, enough to ensure that your team find it difficult to function without another department, this generates a natural motivator, lets face it none of us likes to being relied apon.

• Give Massive recognition to your workers of the work that they do and acknowledge everyone, including those behind the scenes, “when was the last time you thanked the cleaner”???? Is this important? Think about the cycle!!!

• Create promotional incentives and make sure everyone is aware of them , advancement and growth

• The work itself is satisfying (I know there is no way to really measure this but would you want to do the job as it is at the moment?)

• Pay and job security issues do not leave workers dissatisfied
