No matter how much companies rely on technology to get to the job done faster, managers can't forget the human factor. How employees are managed, motivated, and led can make all the difference in the world about how they feel when they walk in the door and when they shut down their PCs at the end of the day.Employees are much more dedicated, much more productive, and much easier to manage when their work engages their passion; they generate their own momentum. Conversely, when a team member's passion is not engaged, he or she is often dispirited, likely to shun responsibility, and unable to meet objectives.it is clearly beneficial to make the best of the talent held in your employee base; there is huge competitive advantage in their creativity and imagination. From the team perspective, harnessing the team's collective talent maximizes its effectiveness. It also motivates everyone involved to learn, develop, and increase their contribution.Most people assume that the experience of giving or receiving feedback will be a negative and uncomfortable one. This doesn't have to be the case, however. It is good practice to highlight positive achievements or traits in any type of feedback situation.

It's a fact of life: Your team members are going to complain about work. But there's a world of difference between healthy venting among comrades and bitter, conspiratorial ranting behind closed doors.
