It’s been true since the dawn of civilization, leaders motivate others. If there were no leaders, most people wouldn’t have the drive or determination to do anything. Society would literally fall apart. 

That’s why most people have a boss or a manager, or a President, or anyone else who they see as their main authority. If you’re a boss or a manager, or just a person of authority and you have people under you, you must remain motivated and enthusiastic if you hope to motivate others. People are looking to you to lead them. So lead by example and you’ll see that your company or organization will be more productive and more successful because of it.  

Leaders motivate others by keeping everyone’s eyes on the common goal. The leader must constantly remind people what they’re doing and what they’re working towards and, if they’re good at it, the people will follow and will be successful. On the other hand, if the leader comes in every day and just rides out the clock, that same lack of motivation will be reflected in those under him or her. Leaders motivate others by their enthusiasm and their dedication to their job or cause. So if you’re a leader, make sure you know what common goals your underlings are working towards and remind them of those goals. Then, let them know how great it will be when they reach those goals. You’ll soon see that by doing that, everyone will work harder and will feel more of a sense of accomplishment because of it.

Leaders motivate others in battle by hyping everyone up, reminding them who their enemy is and by ingraining in the troops heads that the enemy is not as good as they are and cannot win. This is the same tactic that can be used in business and even charity organizations. Of course, you won’t be fighting anyone, but leaders motivate others in these types of organizations by telling everyone how good they are and that things couldn’t be done without them. By making everyone feel important and by telling everyone what a good job they’re doing, people will work harder because they will want to do an even better job.

Slackers

If you have slackers in your organization, all hope is not lost. Leaders motivate others who aren’t working so hard by letting them know that everyone is suffering because of their lack of enthusiasm. Of course, this is best done if the words are softened and if you pull the person aside. It could be that the person feels they aren’t doing a good job, or they aren’t valued. If this is the case, then it’s your job as a leader to build that person up and to ensure them that things couldn’t be accomplished without them. Leaders motivate others not only by their enthusiasm but also for their view that everyone is part of a team and everyone on that team is just as important as everyone else.
