If you’re leading a group of people towards success,you must learn how to motivate others.Try one or more of the following ways of motivating people.
Treat people kindly.As a leader,you need to treat others helping you with the utmost respect and kindness. 1. you might not know it,but it’s one kind of important motivation when people are treated right.People enjoy knowing that they’re doing a good job and enjoy working with people that treat them with kindness.
2. When people are fully responsible,they’11 be more likely to find the motivation to complete the task.This is because,as a part of a group,they may not feel like their hard work matters,but when they’re responsible it certainly matters.They also know that they make a difference to the success of the project.
Be a good listener.No one likes to feel like they don’t matter.Having the final say doesn’t mean that you needn’t get any help with important decision making. 3. Always keep an open ear and you’11 be motivating your team to come up with good solutions and creative ideas.
Set realistic goals.Think long and hard about how your goal setting abilities can teach you to motivate others.You don’t want to set goals that are too easy.Your team might reach them quickly but they won’t be pushed to become the best they can be. 4. Your team will quickly lose motivation because they’11 never get the feeling of having met their goals.
Get to know your people.Keep lines of communication open and get to know your team by paying attention to their wants,needs,strengths and weaknesses. 5. So they’ll certainly be more motivated to work hard for somebody like this.
A.Give people responsibility.
B.Hand out praise when it’s necessary.
C.Offer a nice clean working environment.
D.People will know they have a considerate leader.
E.People enjoy feeling like they’re making a difference.
F.A trustworthy neighbor also provides a safe place to run in case of a fire.
G.Meanwhile,you don’t want to set goals that are impossible to achieve,either.
Three Japanese tourists taking a holiday in Australia got stuck when their GPS to1d them they could drive from the mainland to an island,failing to mention the 15 kilometres of water and mud in between.
As they drove their hired car from Moreton Bay to nearby North Stradbroke Island,they started to notice the firm surface they were driving on giving way to the well-known bay mud.However,being confident that their GPS would direct them to a road soon,they decided to drive on,managing to travel around 500 metres before their car was up to its tires in mud.To make matters worse,the tide(潮汐)started to come in and soon forced them to seek help and abandon the vehicle.Just four hours later the car was trapped m two metres of water —to the great amusement of onlookers on the shore and passengers on passing boats and ferries.
Yuzu Noda,21,said she was listening to the GPS and“it told us we could drive down there.It kept saying it would navigate(导航)US to a road.But we got stuck…there's lots of mud”.She and her travel companions Tomonari Saeki,22,and Keita Osada,21,instead had to give up their plans for a day trip to the island and headed back to the Gold Coast of a lift from the RACQ tow truck(吊车)driver who was called to the trapped car. No such luck for the hired car,though—after assessing the situation,no attempt was made to recover it.The students from Tokyo,who are due to return home tomorrow,said the experience would not put them off returning to Australia for another visit. Mr·Tomonari said,“It has rained every day on our six day holiday.Hopefully next time we come back it will be sunny.”
