Hier erfahren Sie, wie Sie ein Team auf der Grundlage früherer Erfahrungen effektiv motivieren können.

Understanding that motivation is not a one-thing-fits-all. It's personal, and requires that everyone knows the team goal (the destination), but that each team member can see how they can contribute to that broad goal. - Clearly articulate the collective goal - Help individuals see how they can best support through current strengths or growth that they identify for themselves - Give consistent and regular recognition for accomplishments (not big awards - regular, small nods to real achievements - work well done.) - focus on productivity vs. activity - often too much emphasis is put on minute tasks vs. actual achievement, feeding the "I need to be seen as busy" vs. "I am productive"

Monitor and compare the level of goal accomplishment. Establish KPIs and metrics to easier understanding the progress.  Encourage open communication about mistakes and issues so the team members don't have fear of repercussions, but merely as an opportunity for problem identification and resolution. Give praises at the team meetings for the jobs well done. Establish best practices, but update them over time by keeping an eye on the market, as many things have surely changed.

I usually address situations where the team hasn't performed well and develop a dynamic aimed at improving the areas that could be enhanced, summarizing it as targeted team building. After conducting this activity and the team discussing and proposing action plans for the identified points, I ask them to consider, based on these plans, how they would approach the situation that prompted the dynamic differently. They reflect on how they could have acted differently and how we can avoid the same pitfalls in the future, assessing whether the action plans adequately address the issues faced previously.

Motivating a team effectively relies on recognizing individual strengths, setting clear goals, and fostering a positive work environment. Drawing from past experiences, I've found that regular feedback, celebrating achievements, and providing growth opportunities are key. Encouraging open communication and showing genuine appreciation for their efforts also boosts morale and productivity.

Your team has to believe you have their best interest as a priority. The best way to do that is to get to know them as individuals and provide feedback accordingly. Be knowledgeably, honest, transparent, consistent and personable.

Goal setting can be incredibly daunting, especially when your company sets the goal for you. This leaves you in a position of needing the reverse engineer a game plan to get from where you are currently to where the business wants you to be. The overwhelm that this can place on a team is immense. The best place to start when trying to create a plan to deliver a set outcome is to start with the team doing the work. Their input, their ideas and expertise is all you need to deliver on even the most lofty targets. Involving your team in the strategic planning will not only allow you to set realistic milestones and a clear feedback loop, it will also encourage a much higher buy in from your team.

Make sure you both understand the target. Set clear achievable goals even if they are incremental toward achieving the objective. Skill them them up and create a personal plan to reach each goal. Follow up is key and regroup if necessary.

Constructive feedback is not just a tool for improvement; it's a powerful motivator that can propel individuals and teams toward success.

Feedback needs to be consistent and actionable. If you have a regular one on one with a direct report make a priority to keep it. This demonstrates that they are one of your priorities. Be prepared with action items.

Actively listen to your team. They have a perspective you do not, themselves. Encourage free expression and allow them to help you set their path. This solicits buy-in and ownership.

Allow for tribal knowledge. In meetings, encourage collaboration from the whole team. Others on the team may have struggled with a particular roadblock and overcome it. This is also a great way to create a since of team spirit and unity.

Celebrating success is one of the things most businesses lack in 2024. It is so easy to jump from the success of one project to instantly introducing the next. This lack of congratulations leave employees stuck in a loop of feeling as though nothing they do will ever be enough. Giving praise is the most cost effective way to motivate your teams and create a more positive working environment.

Effectively Motivating Your Team: - Understand Needs: Listen to individual aspirations and align them with team objectives. - Set Goals: Establish SMART objectives and celebrate milestones to maintain momentum. - Provide Feedback: Offer constructive feedback to boost confidence and drive improvement. - Encourage Ownership: Delegate meaningful tasks and allow autonomy to foster a sense of ownership. - Foster Collaboration: Create opportunities for teamwork to enhance motivation and performance. - Celebrate Success: Acknowledge achievements to build a positive team culture and encourage commitment.
