More notes from Managing the Professional Service Firm…
Issues in motivating each other…
- There is a spiral effect among
- Motivation
- Productivity and quality
- Economic success
- Marketplace success
- Honesty is very important in recruiting. It creates the right match between position and employee so the person’s motivation emerges naturally
- Firms should have slightly more work than staff to maintain an atmosphere of challenge
- Professionals are smart and want a variety of challenges. They usually have Impostor Syndrome
- Professionals need a meaningful understanding of their work
- And to be reminded that all of the work is important
- Outplacement is not just humanitarian, but a compliment to up-or-out and a way to build the network
