As leader you often have to provide and inspire guidance, instruction, direction, leadership to your team through all the project life cycle, to break through the mediocrity and inspire success where there was no success before, here it is some of my favorite tips to get people accomplish their tasks :
Create a Vision:
Effective leaders supply a shared vision; and inspire people to achieve more than they may ever have dreamed possible. To inspire you must be able to articulate a shared vision in a way that inspires others to act making work exciting.
Know your people:
Give your team enough time to know you, this how you could gain respect, avoid the impact of their subconscious judgment, know what should motivate them, and learn about their Strengths.
Lead by example:
Always show your people the good example, share fully their hardships and privations experienced during the work process, your authority and ability to motivate will increase exponentially for doing so.
Keep Giving Feedback:
Always keep giving performance measurement to your team member, Depriving people of feedback causes them to create their own referential that may not be adequate to the results or success criteria you want your team to accomplish.
Push your people to care about the job:
Don’t stress them, they will lose focus and won’t perform adequately.
Reward:
Take the blame for their mistakes and give them praise for their success.
Trust:
Create an environment of trust, trust is essential in all human relationships – professional or private, there is no place for snipers in a team.
Set goals:
General rule of thumb that greater or more difficult goals actually increase performance, help your people visualize themselves reaching their goals also makes achievement of those goals more tangible
Create routines:
Routine help creating habits, habits increase productivity.
Just remember, that your job as a leader is to keep the work exciting beyond the day-to-day tasks.
