@aleksdahlberg I think leading a team is an important skill than managing.
From what I learned most people like autonomy and to feel competent. So what I usually do is share the vision, create clear goals together and ask then to tell how they can help us getting there. Give positive feedbacks when due and constructive feedback when needed (usually explaining why it needs improvement and suggestion a few paths for them to try). Besides that people usually get motivated when the company is growing or achieving their goals if they are really part of it.
@robertomorais I'm totally agree with you. People sometimes need constructive feedbacks than positive ones. It can be one the most important steps for their career.
A remote working solution.
The most helpful strategies I've seen are leading by example, continuously praising the team for good work so that everyone feels valued, explaining the rationale for all decisions. Setting realistic milestones is important as well.
@maya_ovice I'm agree with you. If people doesn't feel valued how can they work?

@sergul_sungur1 Not only of course. The major asset remains the recognition of efforts & especially the results. For that, even if it is not the only lever, the financial factor is essential.
@fares_aktouf actually we must put financial benefits to the first step, then other functions follow it
@fares_aktouf great idea! real experiences make people inspired.

To motivate my team I make sure our company vision and goals are clear. I encourage them give accurate and positive feedback to reward my team.
@qudsia_ali positive feedbacks always make people empower
In my opinion, a boss should talk to his employees in a dignified way, whatever happens! And the boss is the first person in the team who has to adapt to his employees, as soon as they see that the boss can also respect them, they will start behaving like that in return... I tested it on my own experience.
@ksenijaluskina you're definitely right, the first rule in business world must be respect

Clear goal setting, empower people, provide support, communicate, show appreciation&value....ect..
@leyla_aliyeva1 you're right, determining goals clearly is more important because it provides to understand company's vision.
Communication is not enough, you have to show them the bigger picture of what we are working towards and aiming for!
@tim_heijn good point!
