As a manager, do you know what turns your employees on or off? If you put people in jobs where they can meet their individual needs while doing the work that's important to the organization, you'll have employees who are motivated to perform well.

Wouldn't you agree that personal growth and recognition, creativity, and meaningful work are as important to your workers as they are to you?
If you ask for your people's input, listen to what they have to say and then quickly implement their suggestions. They'll learn that you want to make improvements and you need their help to do so.

Do you find that a lack of employee engagement and a lack of motivation can kill an important project?
In your opinion, what is the main reason why the implementation of lean or six sigma does not go smoothly?
