Employee motivation is a great way to keep employees motivated throughout the times that are tough to stay focused.

- Hire top performers. Bringing on the best means that you will have highly motivated, driven individuals who are knowledgable in their field and are hungry to advance their careers. Hiring the best in their field means your team with be strong, focused and ready to reach goals.
- Show appreciation. With more people on vacation, workloads can increase over the summer. Everyone has to pitch in extra while others head to the beach between Memorial Day and Labor Day. This is a great time to identify the team players who step up and tackle the big projects when the staff can get thin.
- Set goals. Give employees clear guidelines as to what they are working towards. Once there is an end-line it is easier for employees to put the steps in place to get motivated and complete the goal in a reasonable amount of time.
