5 Tips For Motivating Your Assistants

By: Theo McLanahan

There is no rule that says a small business can't accomplish huge goals. If you have your mind set on accomplishing a huge task, you can definitely achieve it. With a team of motivated assistants, you can take on the world. Motivating people can be difficult, but it can be done. The following are some tips on how to keep your assistants motivated.

Goal setting is a powerful way to keep motivated. When your assistant has written goals they have a clear understanding of what needs to be accomplished. Goals are also measurable; they are either accomplished or they aren't. This allows your assistant to know if they are doing a good job or if they need to work harder.

Take some time at the start of each week or month to define and review goals with your assistant. This will help keep both of you on track, and help them to get their assignments completed.

Keeping a positive environment will also help your assistants stay motivated. Even if you and your assistants live in separate states or continents, you can still create a cohesive work environment.

Perhaps you can all meet for a weekly meeting on a teleconference line or in a web conference room. Help everyone feel like a team by encouraging them to interact with one another. Let them know that they can always ask each other for help or advice if you are not available.

Giving your assistants new challenges will also help keep them motivated. Perhaps they can help you plan a new product or event.

Plenty of stimulation is also important for staying motivated. If someone works on the same task for too long, it can lead to boredom and a reduction in the quality of work. Giving them a new assignment or even having two or three assistants working on something as a team can make a big difference.

Holding contests can also be a great motivator. You could create a team goal and if everyone works together and accomplishes the task, you could reward them with a small prize. You could also create individual goals for each team member, or have the team members compete against one another.

Naturally, everyone is unique and each person is motivated by different things. What works for one assistant may not for another, so it's important to keep the lines of communication open and to pay attention to the things that motivate each one.
