Your team members' motivation levels can greatly impact their productivity, engagement, morale, and, of course, the quality of their work. But motivating people is HARD.
Surprisingly, bigger paychecks are less effective than we think they are in motivating people to do good work and stick around. So, if money is not an adequate motivation tool, then what is? How do you motivate your people?
Today's guest is JC Bernstein. JC is a management coach and founder of The Management Mentor. She is also the author of "Ignite Your Team: Using the SPARK Method to Lead, Inspire, and Build a Team that Cares."
JC and I discuss strategies for motivating employees, especially hourly and part-time workers. She unpacks how her 5-step SPARK approach can help you quickly understand your team members' unique motivations so you can build trust and make deeper connections.
