In any leadership scenario, you are sure to come across the term motivation. Today’s corporate leaders are quite aware how the right kind of motivation can serve their purpose in a better way.
Quite frankly, motivation has become the buzzword in everything that we do. Whether it is a leader trying to extract the best productivity from his or her team, or it is a teacher trying to induce students to give in their optimal performance, it is all about motivation.
In this eBook, our endeavor is to tell you the best way in which you can make people work. If you are at the helm of affairs, you will understand how difficult it is to make people work, whether you want them to work collectively or individually. In any case, the method that is employed—and the one that you need to hone to perfection—is about motivating people.
You have to learn how to inspire and motivate others. You have to learn that this kind of inspiration helps people do much better than any amount of rebuke or orders.

If your friend is not seeing why he or she should do something that you want them to do, try motivating them.
Motivation works on everyone, bar none. But, when you motivate someone, it means that you are building within them the energy and the inclination to work. You are motivating someone; it means that you are kindling the dwindling flame of determination in their mind, and you are giving them the energy and the reason to work.
You are showing them what incentives they can get if they chip in that much amount of work. It is good old ‘work and reward’ principle which works all the time.
As you flip through these pages, you will see that the right kind of motivation, if you are trying to bring out the best in people, is never a concrete thing. There is never a formula that can determine how much motivation a person would need. However, the undeniable fact is that everyone needs to be motivated; there is no taking away from that fact.
So, keep reading. You will learn in this eBook what motivation is, and what you can do to really motivate people to do their best at
