How to Motivate your Team

July 7, 2013

To all employers trying to find that invaluable tip/trick of how to motivate your employees to perform at a high level…. here goes: Care. That’s it. Simple isn’t it? But so many drop the ball. Like all relationships, time is key. Don’t just throw a gift card at them, rather take the time to encourage/praise… ask about their lives, etc. If I feel valuable to a company, even better, to my boss, personally… WOW!

God has a plan. Always!

Did a lot of thinking today while working on projects around the house. I think why I love Chick-fil-A so much is that they truly let me be me… It’s amazing how much you can accomplish when you don’t have to worry about toning down your personality to accommodate your surroundings. That’s not to fault past employers, as some of them have been environments where I needed to tone it down… but it’s just so exciting to be able to be who God created me to be.

People should always be Priority

I honestly don’t understand Chick-fil-A operators, or those pursuing a store, who place money at the top of their priority list. I often want to ask them why they are even there. If they truly understood the heartbeat of the Cathy family… it would be about PEOPLE first. Thankfully, guys like Mike Urso, Jade Costen, Art TerKeurst, Robert Shaffer, Stockton Perry, andDean Sandbo get it right. So blessed to have these mentors in my life.
