Employee motivation program

Employee motivation

No matter what your business, your most valuable asset is your employees. They will either make your business grow or break it down by their actions.

In my experience, one of the biggest barriers to employee motivation programs is that managers don't understand how employees think. Most managers think that employees are motivated by the same things that they are. They try to apply the golden rule: Do unto others as you would have done unto to you. Then they wonder why they are not getting the results they want and the employees are still not motivated.

If your employees thought like managers or owners, they would be managers or owners not employees.

Well, if you want to have a successful employee motivation program, you have to understand how employees think. Keep reading this blog for more information.
