Motivation in a job

If you are a manager in a company one of the most important tasks of your job is to motivate the people who work for you. Only when you get it that your employees are motivated and are satisfied with their job, you can receive the highest benefit from them. But this kind of motivation (in Germany we call it Mitarbeitermotivation) is often neglected. However, it is very important to compliment someone if he has done his work very well. You should always try to get diversification in the work of your employees. Even though one may be an expert in his special field, it is good to give him new tasks, so that he can develop further. This could be done with job rotation or job enrichment.
So, if you have some employees, always think about the right motivation. Finally you will benefit from it.
