Because it is down to you. You,
as the business owner, must play a huge role in this – you can’t expect
staff to feel motivated if they are caught up in the monotonous day-to-day
routine, without anything to motivate them.
If your staff do lack motivation you
will see a significant reduction in their productivity and this will become
very apparent in their work, which will start having a detrimental effect on
your business. Meanwhile, motivate them and they will have more drive and
passion within their role, which can only benefit your company.
There are several ways you can
motivate your staff – perhaps provide training opportunities, more social
events, pay incentives, make positive changes to their working environment,
allow them to voice their opinions – both positive and negative, and so on.
But, while these will all play a
role when it comes to increasing motivation, one things you should definitely
do is hire a motivational speaker – perhaps to come and talk at one of your
social events.
Not sold on hiring a motivational
speaker? Here is why you should:
They
will boost drive and determination:
When your employees are motivated
the work atmosphere will be happier, more energetic and focused. There are a
number of ways motivational speakers can do this – they might use stories of
adversity and challenges they have overcome or they may tell inspirational
tales of somebody making a difference in the world. Ultimately enabling your
employees to inspire and motivate themselves.
They
bring knowledge and skill:
Choose a speaker tailored to your
business and, as well as motivation, they can bring with them knowledge and
skills in that sector. As a result your staff learn something useful and at the
same time feel motivated to put it into practice.
They
will bring fresh ideas and new perspectives:
You can get stuck in a rut doing the
same tasks, in the same way, all day, every day. Changes bring challenges and
it might feel like, as much as you would like to change, you don’t have time
for these challenges. Plus, not everyone will be welcome to change. But for the
company to excel, it must keep adapting – not only keeping up with the
competition but getting ahead of them. This is where your motivational speaker
comes in – they can bring with them new ideas and a fresh perspective for your
staff and the company as a whole – helping to change attitudes and allow things
to be seen in a whole new light.
