As mentioned above, a manager’s level of motivation plays a huge role in how the team is motivated. If the manager does not show that much interest in the project – the employees will see it as a project that is not important and likewise will not show interest as well. The manager’s goal is to ensure that information is carried over from top level downwards to the everyday tasks. The manager should maintain a healthy and supportive relationship between themselves and their employees to bolster motivation. Something that can improve motivation on a project is giving more responsibility to an individual or having them do something different for a change. Responsibility will ensure motivation as the employee will feel that their manager trusts them to do more and as a result they will put their best foot forward. Assigning a task that is different than what an employee always does is another way for managers to keep their employees motivated. This adds variance to their everyday role and makes the work more excited rather than dull and repetitive. A manager should be able to cater to the needs of his team and ensure that their employees stay motivated.
