How to motivate your team
for better performance
Discovering the best in people, teams, and organisations is about more than just managing performance – it’s about understanding what truly motivates us. As Daniel Pink pointed out in 2009, our intrinsic motivation and performance thrive when we feel a sense of autonomy, mastery, and purpose.
Picture a workplace where conversations about performance are not just a necessity but something people genuinely look forward to – where everyone takes pride in owning their achievements. That’s the kind of positive change a thoughtful strategy can bring about, leading organisations towards a journey of continuous improvement.
Consider aspects like respect, clarity, embracing strengths, offering genuine praise, fostering growth, and empowering individuals. These aren’t just strategies; they’re the building blocks of a workplace where everyone feels valued and inspired to give their best. It’s through these simple yet profound considerations that organisations can truly create a culture of sustained excellence.
