It could be challenging to work with employees who are less motivated to get the work done. This could especially hurt in the case when your performance is dependent on such employees' work. How do deal with such employees in such situations?
Simply, to first identify the reasons behind the demotivation for the individual then to deal with it accordingly.
The truth about motivation is that it is a personal attribute. Some of us are just naturally more motivated than others. I will add though that I learned the most about leadership by watching a former principal of a school. He didn't spend a lot of time having pep talks or correcting our behavior. He didn't beg the employees to get involved and go above and beyond what was expected. This may sound a bit cliché, but he honestly led by example. After watching him run a school and still take on three additional major projects was motivational for his staff. He also had a kind, giving demeanor that drew you to him and his vision.
So, in short I think we lead and motivate best by example.
Don't complain or gossip this may lead to you to the unwanted problem. This may be your chance to really step up and prove you can deal with difficult situations. “When you go to your boss, tell him or her that you’ve noticed your colleague isn’t getting their work done, so you would like the opportunity to be a leader. Then, approach your colleague and say you want to help him meet goals and deadlines. This frames you as a leader.”
I will call the employee first line Manager into the office and discuss the individual, then based on the discussion I will have a meeting with the individual with his Manager present and try and ascertain the root cause
