Looking To Increase Employee Performance? Motivation Is Critical

Rather than speculate, let's gather some data. Think back through all the jobs you've ever had, and bring to mind the job you had that produced the greatest amount of motivation in you. It doesn't matter what the job was - it might be the job you have right now; it might be a part-time job you had in high school, it doesn't matter. It also doesn't matter what the word, "Motivation," means to you. However you choose to define the term is fine. Simply bring to mind the job that you had when you had the greatest degree of job satisfaction, excitement, enthusiasm, turned-on-ness.
