Motivation is used to describe the ways in which a business can encourage and incentivise staff to work to the best of their abilities. Motivation can be used to measure the commitment, enthusiasm and dedication of a business’ staff. Motivated staff will remain focused for longer throughout a business day, and are more likely to achieve more during the working day.
Motivation within the workplace leads to better team cohesion, more job satisfaction, more productivity, higher levels of enthusiasm, increased staff retention, and higher levels of engagement within the business. There are all very beneficial aspects to improve upon within a workplace, and there are many more benefits for a business as a result of improving motivation.
Motivation is one of the key components to creating high-performance teams within your business. By being able to create high-performance teams within a business, you are able to give your organisation a clear advantage over lesser motivated teams within competitive organisations.
In addition to the above benefits that motivation can bring to an organisation, motivation can also greatly improve the culture of an organisation. Motivation plays a big part in the concept of a high-performance team. This concept is one that is frequently covered on many of In Professional Development’s training courses. Our Creating and Leading High-Performance Teams – CMI Level 7 training course explores the dynamics of high-performance teams, and how you can lead a highly motivated, goal-oriented team to deliver results and achieve more success than any other team. A concept that is used frequently in sport, high-performance teams also have their place in the business world. Goal oriented, results driven teams are needed in order to generate the success that a business needs.
Creating the foundation for high-performance teams within a business is becoming ever more important for organisations operating in competitive environments where motivation within the team is increasingly being seen as the solution to higher operational output.
As mentioned previously, motivation can also be an influencing factor in improving the level of staff retention within an organisation. By ensuring that your team is highly motivated and is operating at a high level to achieve ambitious goals, you can effectively increase the retention of staff within your organisation.
In Professional Development’s Staff Retention and Inclusive Recruitment Programme – CMI Level 7 training course teaches strategies to improve staff retention within an organisation, such as by improving the motivation of team members.
