The Motivating Power of Appreciation and Praise
Author: Mike Moore

The Motivating Power of Appreciation and Praise by Mike Moore ( How to get the best from the people you work with) http://motivationalplus.com/cgi/a/t.cgi?praise

While doing some research for a seminar on maximizing human potential I came upon this interesting piece of information. Appreciation and praise are more powerful motivators in the lives of people than sex and money. I always knew that appreciation and praise were powerful motivators, but I didn't realize just how powerful. More than sex and money?????

How to Use Appreciation and Praise to Motivate People

1. Listen more than you talk. There is nothing more affirming than the undivided attention of another.

2.Always use the first name of the person you are addressing.

3.Be polite and respectful.

4.Ask for solutions to job-related problems and then use the suggestions given.

5.Don't give orders. Ask nicely.

6.Be positive.

7. Be generous with encouragement and affirmation. If you find it difficult to express affirmation and encouragement face to face then write notes of appreciation.

8. Apologize when you have been impatient, sarcastic etc. It will happen. You're only human.

9. Always correct someone in private and never when angry.

10.Give credit; don't take credit.

11.Laugh with the people you work with.

12. Keep your people informed.

13. Be flexible.

14. Ask about their lives outside of work. Ask about their children, hobbies etc. There is a huge difference between being interested and prying.

15. Smile a lot.
