How to motivate your staff to be star performers

One of your biggest challenges as a manager is to create a motivational work environment that results in employees giving their best.

Motivational problems in your company or team can seriously affect staff morale and performance. If you don’t detect and address these early, it will become a negative spiral that feeds on itself.

Do this motivational test to identify if you have a motivational problem in your company or team?

Do you have the following problems?

❑A high or higher than normal staff turnover

❑Your star performers want to jump ship (and because of pushing, not pulling factors)

❑People are taking long breaks (and there is a lot of negative talk in the coffee or smoking area)

❑People arrive late for work and/or leave early

❑A high or higher than normal level of absenteeism

❑A general low mood in the company, no commitment and no passion for making a difference

❑Presenteeism and ‘go-slow’ - staff is ‘present’ but their souls aren’t

❑Performance and productivity are down and accidents up

❑People are taking shortcuts

❑Unethical behaviour is on the increase

❑People are blatantly sabotaging the system or organisational efforts

If you’ve ticked more than one third of these items, you need to review and address the problems that could be detrimental to your staffs’ level of motivation.
