It seems like most important decisions always come down to the numbers. This is especially true for management. This month I am introducing a new blog entry called Fascinating Numbers. In these short blog entries, I will share fascinating numbers that provide important insights into the world of management and leadership. For the first entry, I will share the top 5 motivators at work. Although the rank order for the top 3 motivators may vary depending on who conducts the survey,results consistently show over time that the top 5 motivators for employees are the following:
Top 5 Motivators:
1. Challenging Work
2. Recognition
3. Employee Involvement
4. Job Security
5. Compensation
These fascinating numbers show that employee morale is more directly affected by the boss and his or her management and leadership styles than it is by job security and compensation. (This is true, of course, when employees’ compensation and job security are reasonable for their needs and are equitable.)
