A Method That Will Make You a Better Motivator
The best motivation advice to create new leaders from your team
There is a tremendous difference between managing the “job” and managing the “people”.
For the last few months, I was continually pondering how to motivate my team, make them feel better, and strive for better. I read articles, get suggestions, follow up cases from other companies and try them out to get even a small value. Some give hope, and others make things worse. Until last month, I couldn’t find a method that I totally believe it works.
There are too many dynamics that require a mindset shift in team engagement — the changing business life with the pandemic, Gen-Z involvement in the business world, expectations reshaped by the new-paced lifestyles. All are smashing the known rules and methods. But I found that it is possible to benefit from a prominent suggestion via applying it correctly.
I have been managing projects for almost ten years. When you manage a project together with all its time, budget, and issues, you also manage the project team. But a project, by definition, is a controlled environment for the interactions you have with people. It is not much managing the people but managing the people aspect of the job.
