Motivating Employees Without Money

The employees who work for your company are naturally motivated. All you need to do is to utilize their natural ability, which you can do without spending a dime. That's right! No money. In fact, money can actually decrease an employee's motivation and performance. The first step in utilizing your employees' natural abilities is to eliminate your organization's negative practices that zap away their natural motivation. The second step your organization can take is to develop true motivators which can spark all your employees into being motivated. By decreasing negative zapping demotivators and by adding true motivators, you will tap into your employees' natural motivation. Your employees' natural motivation relies on the fact that all people have human desires for affiliation, achievement, and for control and power over their work. In addition, they have desires for ownership, competence, recognition, and meaning in their work.

The following is a list of ten motivation zapping organizational behaviors that will demotivate your employees.

Create an atmosphere full of company politics.
Develop unclear expectations regarding your employees' performance.
Create a lot of unnecessary rules for employees to follow.
Plan unproductive meetings for employees to attend.
Promote internal competition between employees.
Withhold information critical for employees to perform their work.
Provide criticism instead of constructive feedback.
Tolerate poor performance so your high performing employees feel taken advantage of.
Treat employees unfairly.
Underutilize the capability of your employees.
