What are you looking to accomplish? What are you looking to create? Do your people know?
Make sure you are doing more than just pushing to meet the next deadline. What is the purpose or meaning of what you do? Remind yourself. Remind yourself of what is gained (beyond a paycheck) from all of your hard work. And then remind your people. Are you building something that helps others? Are you providing opportunities for people to achieve? Are you designing things that will still be here in a century?
People who see that their work has meaning—and that they are respected and appreciated for their contributions to that meaningful work—have higher morale and improved retention. That’s true for your team members, and it is true for yourself.
See if you can find a way to give everyone that boost today.
