1 Set clear and realistic goals

One of the main reasons why team members lose motivation is because they don't have a clear and shared vision of what they are working towards and why. As a leader, you need to communicate the purpose, scope, and expected outcomes of each project, and align them with your team's skills, interests, and values. You also need to set realistic and measurable goals that are challenging but attainable, and break them down into smaller and manageable milestones. This way, you can help your team members focus on their priorities, track their progress, and celebrate their achievements.

For any project, especially those that require innovation, setting reasonable goals and deadlines is paramount. In simple terms, utilizing the SMART method (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time-bound) to set goals can significantly enhance their achievability. When setting goals, it's crucial to leverage the project manager's past successes or failures in similar projects. An experienced manager sets goals that effectively harness the potential of all team members while avoiding the risk of project failure.

2 Provide feedback and recognition

Another key factor that influences motivation is feedback and recognition. As a leader, you need to provide regular and constructive feedback to your team members, and acknowledge their efforts and contributions. Feedback helps your team members learn from their mistakes, improve their skills, and adjust their strategies. Recognition helps your team members feel valued, appreciated, and confident. You can use various methods to provide feedback and recognition, such as one-on-one meetings, peer reviews, surveys, or rewards. The most important thing is to be specific, timely, and sincere.

Secondly, I believe what's even more crucial is a robust project management tool, encompassing stage-wise inspections, feedback loops, and recognition mechanisms. Firstly, a good project management tool should employ a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for a complex innovative project. This breakdown shouldn't merely be linear accumulation but rather an organic integration, efficiently coordinating various processes such as technology, engineering, construction, installation, debugging, etc., to determine the ultimate refined execution goals. At each refined node, there should be completion requirements, result feedback, and corresponding recognition. This ensures that every member feels a sense of accomplishment upon completing each task.

3 Foster a positive and supportive culture

A third aspect that affects motivation is the team culture. As a leader, you need to foster a positive and supportive culture that encourages collaboration, creativity, and innovation. You can do this by promoting trust, respect, and communication among your team members, and creating a safe and inclusive environment where they can share their ideas, opinions, and feedback. You can also encourage your team members to have fun, socialize, and bond with each other, and provide them with opportunities to learn, grow, and develop their skills. A positive and supportive culture can help your team members feel engaged, inspired, and motivated.

I've always emphasized that in a competitive team, everyone should have the awareness and ability to "step half a step beyond" This means that employees in each position should not only be familiar with and concerned about their own job responsibilities but also understand and relate to the tasks associated with their work. In simple terms, it's about both your input and output positions. Everyone needs to manage by stepping half a step forward and half a step backward. From a planning perspective, this means being responsible for the preceding and succeeding stages of your work. Only in this way can a team cultivate a positive and orderly culture of mutual assistance and cooperation.

4 Empower your team members

A fourth element that impacts motivation is empowerment. As a leader, you need to empower your team members to take ownership of their work, make decisions, and solve problems. Empowerment helps your team members feel autonomous, competent, and responsible. You can empower your team members by delegating tasks, providing resources and guidance, and removing barriers and obstacles. You can also involve your team members in setting goals, planning strategies, and evaluating results. Empowerment can help your team members feel challenged, satisfied, and motivated.

5 Adapt to changing situations

A final factor that influences motivation is adaptability. As a leader, you need to adapt to changing situations and help your team members do the same. Technology projects often face unexpected changes, such as new requirements, emerging technologies, or shifting markets. Adaptability helps your team members cope with uncertainty, embrace opportunities, and innovate. You can adapt to changing situations by being flexible, agile, and resilient. You can also support your team members by providing clear and frequent communication, offering reassurance and encouragement, and soliciting feedback and input. Adaptability can help your team members feel prepared, optimistic, and motivated.
