Tailor Your Motivation Techniques

Eric Jacobson

If you manage a team of more than a couple employees, chances are that each person is motivated by something different. As their manager, learn what motivates each person on your team and tailor your motivation techniques accordingly. You'll find that most people are motivated by much more than money.

They promote their staff to their supervisor and to others within their organization.
