Management Tip: Motivating your Employees
How do you motivate people, especially if they work for you? I ran across this list regarding how to reward good work somewhere and have found it to be pretty acurate, although at Microsft, I think that "favorite work" one is probably higher on the list.
- Monetary compensation
- Recognition
- Time off
- A piece of the action
- Favorite work
- Advancement
- Freedom
- Personal Growth
- Fun
- Prizes
Related to this are the basic human needs, which to me, is simply a less detailed version of the above list.
- Security
- Variety
- Significance
- Change
- Growth
- Contribution
