Stevey's Tech Talk E25: How to motivate people!
Listen now
Description
Hey folks, thanks for watching the channel. Today's talk is my 7-or-so-step plan, give or take, for becoming a leader who can motivate your people to do their best and most sustainable work for the company. And I'm talking about motivating the right way, which is NOT to rule by fear. You want people to LOVE their jobs; hence the icon for the thumbnail. I've been told that many people may not realize that subscribing/liking/commenting are all actually really good for the channel, because they help YouTube's algorithm suggest this content to people who might be looking for it.  So please subscribe, and/or hit 'like', and/or comment. It's also been suggested that I really need a forum as a place where people can chat with me and ask questions and stuff, since I'm always mentioning that in the videos.  I have taken it to heart and I'm looking at options. I'm currently leaning towards LinkedIn's creator tools; i.e., you can find me, contact me, berate me, etc. all on LinkedIn.  But if you have a better idea, please let me know before I commit.  I'm not a FB user and I'd sorta prefer to keep it that way, but if it's really the best option then I could maybe be convinced. Anyway, thanks for watching the videos!  I hope they're helpful and at least somewhat entertaining.
