Do you want to create and maintain an engaged environment within your organization, one where employees are fully focused on the goals of the company? If so, you need a program that drives employees to become engaged with these goals.

“How do I motivate my employees?” is one of the most common questions managers ask. But according to Dr. Sashkin, it’s the wrong question to ask. The question should be, “What can I do – as a manager – to capitalize on the motivation my employees already have?”

Nearly 78 percent of employees surveyed said they believe recognition by their manager for good work is extremely important. The same survey showed that non-monetary recognition –just a pat on the back or public recognition before their peers – was more important than financial reward.
