Internal Motivation
People are motivated by an opportunity to express themselves meaningfully through work. The people selected should be neither beyond the competence required, nor beneath it. Without competence people do not willingly take accountability.
What Motivates People?
 |
|
External Motivation . . . money, security, recognition, challenge and prestige are needed for a motivated conformity. This can be achieved through "Processes and Systematic Selling Strategies." |
 |
|
Responsibility . . . can be achieved through clarification of "expected required behaviors and goals." |
 |
|
Standards . . . can be achieved through procedures, systems and methods. |
 |
|
Organization Clarity . . . can be accomplished through clear policies, standards and expectations. |
Most of us are motivated and want to work with people who are motivated.
To develop motivated sales people and build Team Spirit, our primary method is a motivational communication style of management, as that of a Nurturing Parent, Coach and Mentor.
By setting forth clearly defined expectations, behaviors, disciplines and goals with each employee, first as a group and then "one on one" you will be well on your way to developing a team of focused and motivated team players. Once the team has been established, the team will share in "team rewards."
