Motivational Techniques for the Unmotivated

Motivational Techniques

In baseball, like in dealerships, managers practice one of two drastically different motivational techniques. Back in the day, the day being the late 1980โ€™s, my premiere college baseball teamโ€™s manager and coach separately operated using the opposite approaches. Of course, they shared a passion for the sport, but thatโ€™s where the commonalities ended. So how did they end up producing professional players?

Our manager chose to use old school, traditional, fear-based methodology. On the opposite end of the spectrum, our coach preferred the progressive, incentivizing, frankly fun approach. Their methods wouldย determine their futures. Limited success awaited our manager, while our coach found success with his motivational approach.

Create a Culture of Motivation

Coachโ€™s success can be attributed to his preferred approach to lead by motivation on and off the field. His system centered on recognizing and rewarding players based on their progress and production. This stirred a culture of healthy competition while having fun in the process. The practice was rarely boring. Rather he transformed the traditionally monotonous training activities intoย opportunities for purposeful competitionย where winners were rewarded and losers were punished. This developed a highly motivated and skilled team that never wanted to let Coach down.

Become a Master Motivator

Develop your sales teamย like Coach. Maximize every sales personโ€™s potential and create internal motivation while maintaining a fun and competitive atmosphere whether youโ€™re winning or losing. Of the two motivational techniques, it’s the progressive method that will sustain your industry success for years to come. Your influence will either be memorable or forgettable, choose wisely.
