Modern-day manager face the modern-day employees or staff or most commonly called as millenials. They are more after on higher compensation rather than on newly added knowledge and learning. Modern Manager can overcome this work attitude though motivating and encouraging them that learning is "Continous Process and much better than Salary" by giving them regular training and seminars that will help to improve their starting career.

the manager should be open minded and take good care of his staff by being friendly and listen to them to know if there are any difficulties in performing their duties and help them to overcome these difficulties if any by training and educate them in order to make them understand their duties and the importance of their duties to achieve the final goal since it is a team work, it is very essential for the manager to show his competence and knowledge in the business to get the respect of his staff and follow up their work schedules to meet the time-table and distribute the load of works by setting up an equitable job description for each of them and apply a rewarding system such as employee of the month as an incentive

One of the big challenge is the  continuity of education and awareness of the subject for the up to date knowledge.

Regular Training programmes and sharing of decision making responsibility in the team.

Try to consider every one in the team as a lead player for the success.

Motivation is a must, each and every one of us has responsibilities and duties towards his job, any person who has the will and qualifications for any required job, should not receive any motivation advise during his/her duty.

Staff have to have regular motivation exisistence inside out, challanges of motivation in my book, consist of, team work regulations and conditions, reverse mentoring, comunity management, and initiatives, all these features of motivation can ensure shorter distances to avoid and overcome challanges of motivation.

I believe that qualified managers in general, can easily be at the listening to his staff, and help them to be more resistant to stress, and empower them through the implementation of procedure and efforts orientation.
