There are six key principles for motivating others:
Individuals are motivated by their requirement to satisfy a hierarchy of needs, such as that described by Maslow (more on this in Idea 30):
Each individual will be at a different stage or level on this hierarchy of needs and will have their own inner pattern of motivational needs.
Other than in financial terms, individuals are usually motivated if they can see that they will be given:
A good leader provides both the right context and climate and at least some of the opportunities for these individual needs to be met. This is perhaps the most difficult but also the most rewarding of a leader's challenges.
‘You do not need a whip to urge on an obedient horse.’
