Learn How to Motivate & Encourage Your Employees
As a manager or leader, do you let your people assume more responsibility when they are able? Do you know when that is, or do you keep telling yourself that they aren’t ready yet?
You may be willing to delegate but you don’t know how. Delegation requires the ability to break up large tasks into smaller chunks, establish priorities, and decide which of those chunks they need to perform. You then also need to monitor their progress….
Motivating your employees – Let’s take motivation in a psychological perceptive and understand it. Motivation in all sense has different definitions and meaning in which most relates on how businesses or managers or leaders employ it. Motivation is generally what energises, maintains, and controls behaviour; it acts as a stimulus for desirable actions.
Motivation results in goal-directed behaviour that results to a positive way of using energy and skills to toward a preferable outcome. The importance of this from a professional standpoint is enormous as much of what employees do is specifically delegated to capture present or future value for their company…
In this theory, both Maslow’s and Herzberg’s motivation theories presents that motivations is triggered by expectations. Though this is true in some points, by generalising it both theories are criticised. It is obvious with many other recent researches that the same people are motivated by different things at different times and that different people are motivated by different things at the same time. Therefore, there is no certain category of motivation. Expectancy refers to the subjective probability that one thing will result in another. Individual perception is, therefore, an essential part of Expectancy theory…
How to Lead & Influence People
Leading people has nothing to do with managing them. Too many managers are trying to micro-manage their staff, all the while forgetting to lead them effectively.
If you want to become a strong leader you need to lead by example. This means you have to show your team that you are perfectly capable to set examples. By doing so you will earn their respect and create lifelong devotees who would move mountains to please you. Conversely, a manager who hides behind his office door while commanding staff isn’t going to gain much respect in the work place…
Understanding Leadership Styles
The dark side of any individual when allowed to go unchecked can create a rigid and dysfunctional personality that stifles creativity, and taints or ruins relationships.
When such characteristics are given reign in a leader, a self-righteous and bombastic person can result, who alienates the very people they are meant to inspire…
Leadership Skills – What Makes a Great Leader?
Napoleon once said: “One bad general does better than two good ones.” It takes a
moment for the sense of this to register, but it is the same as our modern saying that “too
many cooks spoil the broth” Having one set of instructions, even if they are flawed, is
preferable to having two sets of perfect directions that, when enacted together without
reference to each other, cause havoc…
Are Your Employees Motivated?
Employees that are too stressed out results to lower quality and productivity. Stress can also result to illness which can either be physical, like fatigue, or mental, like anxiety and tension. However, a certain amount of stress could be required to help keep employees motivated. If things run too smoothly, employees can lose attention and become bored in their work…
Many different things and factors can motivate a person in the workplace, but there are also different factors that can also motivate conflict and inflict stress in the workplace. One key factor is stress management, how the person handles stress is what will make or break a working relationship…
