Hmmm, if i may as, how should a leader act? There are many leaders out there who are not doing the right thing hence getting the wrong results.
That's exactly why he said the business owner should act as a leader. There are some qualities a leader possesses that should be seen in the character of a business owner.

There are many ways employees can be motivated without money. It could be through gifts, appreciation, promotion etc. But the only language workers understand most is money.

Promotion and money are the two major languages that motivate workers the most. if a worker knows that he or she will be promoted and salary increased, they will actually work consistently.

Yes i completely understand, what am asking is what are these qualities, based on experience these things can be really confusing. I have met someone who is a leader and a business owner, he takes charge pretty well but i noticed he tends to force and control the workers, but to him he is leading, to the workers, they see him as a tyrant.

Another way to motivate staff is to ensure that the workplace is conducive, with all necessary equipment and facilities put in place. It's frustrating when they have to improvise just to complete a task.

Forcing people to do something is not a leadership skill. A leader always leads by example and you don't even need to force people to go your way instead they will see a reason to do so.

Right appreciation with sincerity will definitely motivate employees but money remain the key factor for long lasting motivation. Once worker realize that he is not getting the required money and getting always verbal motivation then he may quit the job.

The workers probably have families to take care of. So money remains a major motivating factor in any business venture.

That is why it baffle me to hear that workers can be motivated without money. This kind of incentive won't not serve as an inspiration to other workers.

Yeah, majority of people work because of money. But there are still people who may be receiving big amount of money but they will not be motivated to work.

Some years ago I gave up my job because my employer did not appreciate my effort and he was rude. So, I found a new job with less money but with a kind employer.
Peace of mind is also important in any work or job you are doing. If your boss is abusive then it is better you quit so that your mental health will not be affected. Are you still in the job with a Kind employer?.

Now I am in a different job but with a kind employer again. I have no stress and this is the best thing for me.
