  1. The Leadership Development Series Sponsored by Student Activities

  2. Motivation is: • The psychological feature that pushes one to action toward a desired goal • That which gives purpose and direction to behavior • Having the desire and willingness to do something

  3. Types of Motivation & Rewards • Intrinsic • Internal motivation such as a sense of accomplishment • Rewards that are built into the work itself like a chance to be creative or overcome a challenge • Extrinsic • External motivation such as a tangible reward • Rewards that are given for the work such as money, gifts or recognition

  4. So what does that mean? Good leaders know that motivated members are involved members! MOTIVATION = RETENTION Motivating, involving and rewarding your members means keeping your members.

  5. Let them eat Grapes! GRAPE Retention • Growth • Recognition • Achievement • Participation • Enjoyment

  6. Growth For members to have the chance to grow, they must be given opportunities to grow as a person. This can involve: • Working with others • Learning new skills • Working on challenging projects

  7. Recognition Everyone likes to be recognized for the work they have done. Don’t forget to let your members know that they are appreciated for the work that they do. Ways to recognize members include: • Naming a “Member of the Month” • Writing thank-you notes • Giving small tokens of appreciation • Ceremonies

  8. Achievement There is nothing better than working on a project from start to finish and gaining a sense of accomplishment. Your members need to feel that they played a part in the overall achievement of the group. Share your members achievements by: • Presenting them with a certificate or award • Secure an article in the student newspaper • Share positive feedback from students and administrators with the whole group

  9. Participation No matter how busy we all are, everyone needs time to socialize. Being a member of an organization is a great way to participate in out-of-class activities and make new friends. Keep your members participating by: • Incorporating social activities in all of your meetings • Include ice-breakers or team building activities to allow new and old members to socialize • Have members coordinate social events not related to organization business

  10. Enjoyment There’s nothing better than hanging out with a group of people you like and planning events you enjoy! Help your members enjoy themselves by: • Planning fun activities • Providing treats at meetings • Finding time just to hang out together

  11. Being a Motivated Leader • Be a visionary • Maintain Balance • Trust yourself and your members • Don’t be afraid to delegate • Be a “member” not just a “leader”
