1 Identify the root cause

The first step to motivate your team is to understand why their productivity is slipping. You can’t fix a problem if you don’t know what it is. So, start by having honest and empathetic conversations with your team members. Ask them how they are feeling, what challenges they are facing, what feedback they have, and what support they need. Listen to their concerns and opinions without judging or blaming. Try to identify the main factors that are affecting their motivation and performance, such as workload, resources, communication, recognition, autonomy, or purpose.

Root cause analysis is the major thing you need to do to fix the problem because if you don't know what the problem is and where it started from you will not be able to tackle it properly. So, we need to understand where it started and how it modified to such big problem.

2 Set clear and realistic goals

The next step to motivate your team is to set clear and realistic goals for them. Goals can help your team focus on what matters, track their progress, and celebrate their achievements. But they also need to be SMART: specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound. If your goals are too vague, too ambitious, too irrelevant, or too distant, your team will lose interest and confidence. So, work with your team to define the goals that are aligned with the project’s vision, scope, and timeline. Make sure they understand the expectations, the criteria, and the benefits of reaching the goals.

3 Provide feedback and recognition

The third step to motivate your team is to provide feedback and recognition. Feedback and recognition can help your team improve their skills, learn from their mistakes, and feel appreciated and valued. But they also need to be timely, specific, constructive, and sincere. If your feedback and recognition are too delayed, too general, too negative, or too insincere, your team will feel demotivated and discouraged. So, make it a habit to give feedback and recognition regularly and frequently. Praise your team for their efforts, results, and contributions. Acknowledge their strengths, challenges, and improvements. Encourage them to share their feedback and recognition with each other.

The major thing we need to continue is evaluating and governing feedback to people. Evaluation will give us clarity where we are and feedback will help us to improve what we are doing.

Few ways to motivate a team when productivity is slipping. First, it's important to identify the root cause of the issue & address any underlying problems. This could be anything from a lack of resources to unclear goals. Next, try to invest in your team members' professional development & provide opportunities for them to learn new skills & grow. Positive feedback/recognition for a job well done can also go a long way in boosting morale. Additionally, setting clear expectations & ensuring that everyone understands their roles and responsibilities can help your team members feel more motivated and focused. Finally, consider implementing a reward system or performance metrics to track progress & provide incentives for improved productivity.

After determining the cause of the delay and identifying key factors, reassess the skills of the team members and reassign with clear measurable goals with time set / time table to achieve steps of the project. Your reevaluation is on a daily basis until the team picks up and deliver on deadline(s) set.

4 Empower and involve your team

The fourth step to motivate your team is to empower and involve them. Empowerment and involvement can help your team feel more autonomous, responsible, and engaged. But they also need to be balanced, consistent, and respectful. If your empowerment and involvement are too restrictive, too erratic, or too intrusive, your team will feel micromanaged and resentful. So, give your team some freedom and flexibility to make decisions, solve problems, and express their ideas. Delegate tasks and responsibilities according to their skills, interests, and preferences. Invite them to participate in planning, brainstorming, and reviewing sessions.

Show interest in your team members aspirations and help them achieve those goals. Give them chances to learn and practice leadership skills (create those experiences for them if not available), or other skills they'll need for their next step. In my experience, if you care about your people's growth, they will do almost anything for you, even what's outside their job description.

5 Support and develop your team

The fifth step to motivate your team is to support and develop them. Support and development can help your team cope with stress, overcome challenges, and grow professionally. But they also need to be personalized, relevant, and accessible. If your support and development are too generic, too unrelated, or too unavailable, your team will feel neglected and stagnant. So, offer your team some resources, tools, and training to help them perform better and learn new skills. Provide them with some coaching, mentoring, and feedback to help them achieve their goals and potential. Create a positive, collaborative, and inclusive culture where they can feel safe, comfortable, and valued.

6 Reward and celebrate your team

The sixth and final step to motivate your team is to reward and celebrate them. Rewards and celebrations can help your team feel satisfied, happy, and loyal. But they also need to be fair, meaningful, and diverse. If your rewards and celebrations are too unequal, too trivial, or too monotonous, your team will feel demoralized and indifferent. So, offer your team some incentives, perks, and bonuses to reward them for their performance and behavior. Celebrate their milestones, achievements, and successes with some fun, creative, and social activities. Show your gratitude, appreciation, and pride for your team and their work.
