Leadership and Motivation the Fifty-Fifty Rule and the Eight Key Principles of Motivating Others

What motivates people is an important consideration for captains of industry, commerce and the public sector - in fact anyone who works with other people - since people are central to the success of organizations. "Leadership and Motivation" explores the subject in depth. Leadership guru, John Adair reassesses the theories of Herzberg and Maslow - still the major contributors to our understanding of motivation - in the context of Action-Centred Leadership - the concept pioneered and developed by the author. Central to the book are the Fifty-Fifty Rule and the Eight Key Principles of Motivating Others. With the Fifty-Fifty Rule, Adair states that half of a person's motivation comes from within and half is due to their environment - especially the leadership they encounter there. His Eight Key Principles of Motivating Others are: Be self-motivated; Select people who are also self-motivated; Treat everyone as an individual; Set challenging yet realistic targets; Remember that progress motivates; Create a motivating environment; Provide fair rewards; and, Give recognition.
