Motivation Triggers<br />

However hard you try, you cannot motivate another human being.<br />

Humans are pre‐motivated by their individual purpose and values.<br />

Don’t ask yourself what you can do to motivate them; try to find<br />

out how they are already motivated. Once you know their<br />

personal motivation triggers, try as best you can to match their<br />

expectations with the work at hand. For example, if someone<br />

enjoys creative work, give them more assignments involving<br />

creative work. If someone likes customer interface more than<br />

processing, try to give them opportunities to interact with<br />

customers. The point is, now that you know what they like, to the<br />

extent possible, give them an opportunity to do what they like<br />

BEST.<br />
