Give them an opportunity to perform. This gives them a chance to be a part of the game plan, to carry out the vision.
Let them know how they’re getting along. This lets them have an opportunity to learn, improve, and increase their contribution.
Instruct and empower them when they need it. This gives them the means to learn, improve, and increase their contribution.
Reward them according to their contribution. This gives them incentive for their effort.
