I can motivate people

Not really -- they have to motivate themselves. You can't motivate people anymore than you can empower them. Employees have to motivate and empower themselves.I can motivate only myself. If I have to motivate my people to deliver result then perhaps they are in wrong job.

Having said that, an environment, however, can be set up where they best motivate and empower themselves. The key is knowing how to set up the environment for your people. Essentially you can be enablers for others to be motivated [self].

I am exploring the ways to do so for my team. Obviously organizational level parameters like money, career growth and skill development, recognition etc are already in place. What I am looking for is team level local enablers.


But I am toooooooooobuzy!!!

After a while u learn d subtle diffrnc
btwn holding a hand n chaining d souls..
N u learn dat , love doesn't mean leaning
n company doesn't mean security..
n u begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts
And presents are nt promises...
And u begin to accept ur defeats With ur head up n ur eyes opn,
With d grace of a man, nt d grief of a child..
And learn to build all ur roads
On today bcoz tomorrow's ground is too uncertain fr plans n futures hav a way of falling down in mid flight ..
After a while u learn dat evn sunshine burns if u hav too much..
So u plant ur own garden n decorate ur own soul,
instead of waitng fr someone to bring u flowers,
And u learn dat u really can endure..
That u really are strong..
And u really do have worth,
And u learn n learn
With every person u meet or employ , u learn
With every frnd or lover, u learn
With every good bye,you learn... ♥
