Motivational Strategies in the Workplace

 

            Motivational Strategies in the Workplace.
             In this paper I will describe the management philosophy of SurgiVet, a division of Smiths Medical, and give a few examples of strategies that influence motivation with in the organization to support its philosophy. I will explain the benefits of motivational strategies. In addition, I will discuss how those strategies impact performance and how employee resistance presents itself as a reaction to those strategies. Finally, I will offer an opinion about how effective the organization's management philosophy is in the area of employee motivation and give a rationale for my opinion. .
             Certain motivational strategies can work very well to get you excited about whatever work you need to do. The idea is to find ways to quickly and easily get you motivated to do things. Whether it's finishing off that project at work, or shoveling the driveway, we all could use a little help with self-motivation. Motivational strategies can help you in every area of your life. When you improve your motivation at work that often overflows into your motivation in your personal life. It also works the other way around. The point is, increase your personal motivation and all areas of your life will improve. If you need help getting motivated in your personal life or career (or both), as most of us do, searching out, finding and embracing the motivational strategy that works for you is a great idea. You'll benefit directly and maybe you'll influence others to follow your example.
             The company that I work for does not have a strong leadership or management commitment to help drive a motivated workforce. My direct supervisor has very hands off management style. My supervisor is also in charge of our sales force. Because of this issue, I try to help to influence the motivation of sales people whenever I can. I believe creating and sustaining motivation requires open communication, honesty, and respect.
