Research: The Art of Motivation: Inspiring today’s workforce

This research examines what makes employees happy and motivated in the workplace, and discovers whether it is necessary to have a large budget to achieve a motivated workforce.

The Art of Motivation 1

Key findings:

  • Of the 2,001 employees surveyed, 61 per cent said they were motivated most of the time. Just 21 per cent said they were motivated all of the time.
  • The top three things that motivated employees in their job were: a pay rise (53 per cent), receiving a reward for doing well (32 per cent), and completing a piece of work they found challenging (29 per cent).
  • When asked what their employer could do better to motivate them, 37 per cent said ‘make me feel appreciated’, 34 per cent said ‘offer me regular incentives & rewards’, and 23 per cent said ‘keep my role varied and challenging’.

This research from Red Letter Days Motivates explores office relationships, management impact, rewards and recognition, as well as what makes employees feel driven.
