It’s very easy to motivate me: Get me passionate about something, show me the potential positive outcomes for me, for the company, and for society. Or, just challenge me saying that you do not believe I can do it: Trust me, I can get anything done, as long as it does not harm others.
I also like to believe that I know how to motivate others very well considering that almost always I got the outcomes deserved by my employees. Very very simple formula: You get to know them, understand their motivations and goals, and find a way to match them. Also, people generally lack attention, caring and love. The rare times where this simple formula did not work, I have a serious talk. When people see you as a loving, caring and energetic manager, a simple serious talk is enough for them to understand the gravidity of a situation and follow your instructions.
How I could improve the way I motivate people is a good question that my friends – perhaps Joi, Pryia and Adam – might be able to respond. I believe that sometimes I can get caught on a particular task or project and it might let me to forget for a moment about how employees and colleagues feel. Probably being as attentive as a hawk on my team and in what motivates them.
