How to Inspire Others in Business

We all need an inspiration boost now and then. Whether you’re an employee, a boss, or self-employed, inspiration runs low now and then. When inspiration drops in your team, here are a few ways to help. 

Get others involved in the process

Include others in the process of brainstorming or assisting in a project in some way. Their input can both inspire you with new ideas and inspire them to feel involved and want to contribute more. 

Encourage originality

Everyone is best at being his or her self. Allow others to show their unique colors, and it will inspire others to take risks and get results. This can include small tasks, like decorating your desk to your liking, or large tasks, like letting someone run their own presentation in the next staff meeting.

Create meaningful relationships

Meaningful connections both in and outside the “office” are the cornerstone of inspiration (and it reduces turnover). When you want to support someone, the best way to do that is through authentically building a connection with that person. 

Communication is key

You cannot hope to inspire others in business without communicating your needs and wants effectively, answering questions openly, and being receptive to feedback. Communication builds the know, like, and trust factor that we all need in order to build a business with others.

Leading by example

Inspire others to do better by trying to do better every day yourself. Action begets action. If you are feeling low, create an energy state change. Lack inspiration? Watch some motivational videos. Letting others see you in action will inspire them to do the same. 

We can all be an inspiration to others, in and outside of business. It is up to us to be that shining example of inspiration when the world is feeling down; it just takes the right attitude and perspective.
