Motivation

Agreed with the experts............ no need to add more to the topic.

2. Fairness.89% want their manager to be fair and to hold all employees accountable to the same standards.
3. Trust. More than86% want to trust—and be trusted by—their manager.
4. Respect.84% want to respect—and be respected by—their manager.
5. Dependability.81% say they want to be able to count on their manager when needed.
6. Collaboration.77% want to be a part of their manager's team and be asked to contribute ideas and solutions. Shutting employees out will shut them up—and send them shipping out.
7. Genuineness.76% want their manager to be a genuine person. Employees sometimes spend more time with their boss than with their families—they don't want a phony.
8. Appreciation.74% want their manager to appreciate them for who they are and what they do. When was the last time you handed out a "Thank you!” or "Great job!” to employees?
9. Responsiveness.74% want their manager to listen, understand and respond. Be a sponge, not a brick wall.

5 things they don't need

While it's important to know what your employees need, it is just as vital to understand what they don't want from their manager. Among the survey's somewhat surprising findings:

1. Friendship. Only3% want their manager to be a friend. As in parenting, it's more important to be a leader, mentor and example than a buddy.
2. Conversation. Only14% want to have interesting conversations with their manager.
3. TLC.24% say they want their manager to "care for them.” That doesn't mean you have to be cold and detached, but most employees aren't looking for a best friend in their boss.
4. Emotional support.25% want emotional support from their manager. Employees typically look for that among co-workers rather than a boss.
5. Cheerfulness. Only28% want a cheerful or happy manager. They'd rather respect you than like you.
