You\u2019re able to do what you\u2019re passionate about while <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/blog\/mentorship-programs-in-the-workplace\/\">mentoring and guiding others<\/a> to achieve their goals.\n\nHowever, it can sometimes be a <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/resources\/mental-health-know-the-signs-poster\/\">challenge to find your own motivation<\/a> to roll out of bed and motivate others. Stay tuned for our top motivation tips for leaders.\n<h2 id=\"how-do-you-stay-motivated-as-a-leader-when-all-you-want-to-do-is-stay-in-bed\">How do you stay motivated as a leader when all you want to do is stay in bed?<\/h2>\nUnlike your team members, as a manager or team leader, you lack the ability to lean on someone for encouragement and inspiration. Learning how to tap into your intrinsic motivation can help prevent you from running out of steam.\n\nThis is most important when you\u2019re in charge of juggling 101 tasks, duties and deadlines.\n\nIn the current circumstances, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.afr.com\/work-and-careers\/leaders\/the-ceos-stepping-up-in-response-to-covid-19-20200326-p54e9t\">some leaders are more motivated than ever<\/a> to rise above in these times of turmoil. However, others have been left feeling flat as a pancake. Let\u2019s dive into our most powerful motivation techniques.\n<h2 id=\"tips-for-self-motivation-as-leaders\">Tips for self-motivation as leaders<\/h2>\nWith flexible working becoming the norm, managers now have the added pressure of keeping both themselves and their remote teams motivated.\n\nLuckily, we\u2019ve got you covered with these seven easy-to-implement motivation techniques to help you stay motivated when managing a team.\n<h3 id=\"1-set-yourself-3-5-okrs\">1. Set yourself 3-5 OKRs<\/h3>\nBy setting 3-5 Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) you\u2019re able to align your team with multiple ambitious goals that are designed to enhance motivation. The beauty of OKRs is they allow you to not only set broad objectives but also to think of each key step needed to accomplish a certain goal.\n\nIf you haven\u2019t heard of the term OKR before or want to learn more on how to implement it into your business,<a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/blog\/how-to-implement-okrs\/\"> check out this useful guide to help you get started.<\/a> In a nutshell, OKRs are simple tools used to create engagement around measurable targets.\n\nBy having something to work towards, you are more likely to stay on track and be more motivated to hit the ground running. Set objectives that are challenging and inspiring for you and your team.\n\nIf you\u2019re interested in learning how to get the most out of your OKRs, check out this article <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/resources\/okrs-guide\/\">here.<\/a>\n<h3 id=\"2-be-sure-to-reward-yourself\">2. Be sure to reward yourself<\/h3>\nRewards are one of the most popular motivation techniques. It\u2019s important to give yourself a pat on the back when you\u2019ve been successful in your role. It can be easy as a leader to focus all your energy on celebrating your team\u2019s achievements while allowing your own to fall by the wayside.\n\nThis doesn\u2019t mean you need to go overboard on rewarding yourself every time you get out of bed.\n\nInstead, we\u2019re suggesting you <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/blog\/self-care-in-the-workplace\/\">allocate some time to spoil yourself<\/a> after hitting a certain milestone. Perhaps this could be ordering your favourite Thai, booking a home spa day or treating yourself to that new watch you had your eye on.\n\nWhatever it may be, make sure it\u2019s meaningful so you can feel truly rewarded for a job well done. This will also help you feel motivated to continue kicking goals.\n<h3 id=\"3-find-someone-who-inspires-you\">3. Find someone who inspires you<\/h3>\nWhen you lead a team, it\u2019s more than likely that you are the person your employees look up to when they\u2019re in need of <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/resources\/employee-engagement-guide\/\">a bit of encouragement<\/a>. However, if you\u2019re the one on top, there\u2019s no one above to lean on.\n\nThis is when it is crucial to start looking outside of your company and find someone whose leadership skills inspire you.\n\nInfluential figures, like famous leaders from history, motivational speakers or successful entrepreneurs, are a powerful source of motivation from the inspiring stories they tell. Positive role models also help to mould your actions and can have a meaningful impact on your work.\n\nTheir stories often serve as motivators to overcome challenges and harness true potential.\n\nThankfully, finding a role model doesn\u2019t have to be an exhausting task; simply start by searching through your favourite books, documentaries, speeches or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inspiringleadershipnow.com\/best-ted-talks-on-leadership\/\">TED talks<\/a>.\n<h3 id=\"4-maintain-a-worklife-balance\">4. Maintain a work\/life balance<\/h3>\nHaving a healthy balance between your working and personal life is essential in preventing yourself from becoming demotivated. This most certainly applies to leaders; when you\u2019re running around catering to everyone else\u2019s needs, it\u2019s easy to forget your own.\n\nThe bottom line is results should never come <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/blog\/occupational-wellness\/\">at the expense of quality of life<\/a>. Rather, the two ideals should aim to co-exist peacefully so you can provide your mind and body with the downtime needed to fuel motivation.\n\nIf you neglect to find a healthy balance between the two, you\u2019ll soon find yourself running out of puff. In senior management positions, a traditional 9-5 work schedule might not always be the case. You may be required to work late into the evening or sacrifice a weekend.\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/wellness-at-work-report\/\">Avoid overworking yourself;<\/a> setting aside some time for rest and renewal is essential for restoring energy. Do some digging and try to find what it is that helps you unwind and de-tune from the daily stressors of work.\n\nProvided it fits your preferences and lifestyle, this could involve going for a weekly massage, sleeping for an extra couple of hours on a day off, spending quality time connecting with your family or reading a new book.\n<h3 id=\"5-recognise-when-to-delegate-tasks\">5. Recognise when to delegate tasks<\/h3>\nWhether it is 5 or 50 people working beneath you, leading a team will always involve carrying additional pressures and responsibilities on your shoulders. If you find yourself lacking the motivation to complete a task that your team members are capable of handling themselves,<a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/blog\/how-to-delegate-effectively\/\"> don\u2019t be afraid to delegate<\/a>.\n\nRemember, this doesn\u2019t mean you should palm off boring jobs to someone else. Instead, if you find yourself overwhelmed by the ever-increasing pile of work on your desk, and one of your team members has a spare free moment, reach out and see if they\u2019d be happy to help.\n\nJust because you\u2019re leading a team does not mean you\u2019re a superhuman capable of finishing everyone\u2019s work. Try not to be so hard on yourself. Too many responsibilities can suffocate creativity and force you into a downward spiral of demotivation.\n\nIn these instances, brainstorming and problem-solving techniques are at an all-time low, and your teams will be left wandering aimlessly.\n<h3 id=\"6-have-fun-with-your-team-by-participating-in-wellness-activities\">6. Have fun with your team by participating in wellness activities<\/h3>\nIt\u2019s impossible to expect your employees to be motivated towards their work if their physical and mental health is compromised. The same can be said for leaders.\n\nSpending time with your team and forming <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/blog\/employee-wellness-program-ideas\/\">collective wellness goals<\/a> is an excellent way to feel a sense of connectedness and motivation as a group.\n\nProviding you and your team with a strong support network will prevent feelings of demotivation and help encourage greater productivity. Coordinate fun office activities that help promote health and wellness; and be sure to get involved.\n\nTry something like \u2018Munch and Learn\u2019 where a healthy lunch is prepared for your team while working together on a project. Another suggestion could be hosting weekly yoga classes outside of the office, find a place where you and your team can go to focus on stretch and deep breathing techniques.\n\nFor <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/blog\/support-remote-employee-wellbeing\/\">managers with remote teams<\/a>, this can be a little challenging as you lack the ability to feed off the energy created from interacting face-to-face. Try to be a little creative \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/blog\/free-online-team-building-games\/\">plan some virtual activities<\/a> that can help improve you and your team\u2019s mental and physical health.\n\nA great example would be to start a step challenge and have some rewards for the person who gets the most steps in for the week.\n\n<span style=\"font-size: 2.25rem; letter-spacing: -0.0125rem;\">7. Mentor an Intern<\/span>\n\nIt\u2019s no secret that over time our work can become a little stagnant and repetitive. Finding that passion you had on the first day of the job can sometimes feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. That\u2019s why we recommend <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/resources\/how-to-coach-employees-in-the-workplace\/\">spending time with someone who is just getting started<\/a>.\n\nInterns are highly motivated to work hard and learn as much as possible. Whether they\u2019re fresh out of university or looking for a career change. Mentoring someone who carries that excitement and determination is an excellent way to reignite the flame within.\n\nWith a fresh set of eyes, new ideas and challenging questions, interns will be as valuable to you as you are to them.\n\nGuiding, mentoring and passing on your experience to someone new can help clear out any cobwebs and provide a sense of motivation for the kind of work you do. Watching someone learn and grow within your team is an inspiring feeling in itself.\n\nYou get to be right by their side cheering them along for every exciting milestone they hit.\n<h2 id=\"motivation-techniques-how-employment-hero-can-help\">Motivation techniques: How 91±¬ΑΟ can help<\/h2>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/pricing\/\">91±¬ΑΟ <\/a>is the world\u2019s first integrated HR an payroll OS that can simplify leadership tasks and help keep you inspired and motivated.\n\nAs a leader, it\u2019s essential to keep employees feeling pumped up and ready to work.
