Maintaining a motivational climate sets the scene for maximizing the talents and abilities of the individuals who make up the entire organization. People who are motivated, who maintain a positive attitude toward the organization and their role in it, and who are enthusiastic about their work, always look for opportunities to grow and develop.

They want to grow in personal effectiveness, in career standing, and in job productivity. The most effective impact a leader can make on the “bottom line” – the place where all productive effort must eventually be evaluated – is to help team members develop and use more of their full potential.

People grow personally and become highly productive in a climate that is conducive to personal and professional development. Growth is further accelerated in a work environment that offers the freedom to try new ideas, to fail and try again, and to learn from experience.

Career growth is a lifelong process. But the organization cannot afford to wait 20 years or longer for employees to mature to their top professional capacity. Maturity in one’s career never arrives just by merely waiting for it. Today’s fast-paced business world warrants immediate action.
