The first is anonymity, which is the feeling that employees get when they realize that their manager has little interest in them a human being and that they know little about their lives, their aspirations and their interests. The second sign is irrelevance, which takes root when employees cannot see how their job makes a difference in the lives of others. Every employee needs to know that the work they do impacts someone's life – a customer, a co-worker, even a supervisor – in one way or another. The third sign is something I call immeasurement,. It's the inability of employees to assess for themselves their contribution or success. Employees who have no means of measuring how well they are doing on a given day or in a given week, must rely on the subjective opinions of others, usually their managers, to gauge their progress or contribution.

Unleashed Passion - Unlimited Potential Aaaaahh – The Refreshing Leader Teaches Lesson Plan Motivate Me I Dare You! Accountability for your Motivation

Leaders Motivate? With Posters?

Try Teaching "Corporations have a problem with motivation. They have only two means at their disposal, which are: fear motivation and reward motivation. Fear motivation - deliver the goods or you'll be fired; reward motivation -deliver the goods and you'll be sent around the world. Neither works in the long-term. Notwithstanding, there is a mistaken idea that people can be motivated in other ways. People cannot be motivated. The organization that thinks its actions motivate people is ignoring the fact that motivation is essentially a personal matter." "It is a problem of the mind/brain mechanisms of the individual, and because this is so, it is absolutely the responsibility of the individual. The most corporations and managers can do is help people become more motivated by giving them information guiding them to the source of their own power. Paul G Thomas Advanced Psycho Cybernetics
