Everyone enjoys having their efforts observed and acknowledged, especially when it is an unprompted commendation of a job well done. Praise is a potent motivator that may be used even in the face of setbacks. It is in everyone's nature to make errors, but the important thing is to avoid repeating them. It becomes an opportunity for the individuals involved to learn something new if a team or employee has a rationale for their conduct yet the behavior turns out to be improper.

A pay raise or promotion to a more senior position motivates an employee. Other than monetary reward, praise and acknowledgement of a job well done, giving the employee more decision making power are also motivating.
Employees are motivated by different factors, like recognition, career development, job security, a positive work environment and fair compensation providing opportunities for learning and growth and offering a worklife balance can also boost employee motivation.
The problem is that for some companies this is something difficult to do sometimes, that is why sometimes there are other ways to get it such as giving more vacation days or other bonuses.
For some private organizations, they find it very hard to increase employees salaries. Even the bonuses, they don't give. That's why staff leave them regularly
Yes, this is true, but sometimes they can not because of the conditions of the country where they operate, but well some benefit they have to really give if they want to keep employees motivated, if not as you say, they will leave
Another major factor that motivates employees is showing concern to the plight of those employees. Give them off days when they are sick so they recover.
Everyone gets motivated when there is financial incentive. It is the highest kind of motivation you can give to humans.
This is very true and I have to agree. But it gets me wondering, what is the usefulness of appreciation over money? Can you use it to buy something? Givee money and motivate me to run 1000 meters.
It is actually a good thing to have other things that motivate someone beyond money. That's because there might be times that money is not available and the person has to find a way and be motivated.
Yes, I totally agree with you, it's all very effective in motivating workers, so they want to be loyal to the company and give their best performance. Good input will always produce good output.
The senor staff would feel that his contributions over the years has been appreciated. That's why it is slmehiw dicey to elevate a junior staff to head a department. It might demotivate the senior staff.
Yes, that is one way to motivate workers too. It rarely happens, the head of the department comes from a junior staff. Senior employees with achievements are prioritized over junior employees with achievements.
