Motivation is scarce and short-lived. Multichannel communication methods and long lectures will not help in the long run.
So, consider developing the work environment with the following attributes:
- Try to tell stories about everything, as we love stories.
- Gamify operational and strategic functions, as we love playing games.
- Humanise communication, we like to see things the way they are (real).
- Show them one big goal, as it gives a sense of purpose.
- Show them what is there for them, as most of us are egocentric.
The key to motivation is understanding human nature.
