Management Interview - How do you motivate people

 Motivation isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution, so I like to really get to know my team on an individual level.  I feel like this gives me a good feel for what works for each person.
I believe non fınancıal rewards are usually more effectıve than the fınancıal ones. Still, depending on an employee's character they may also substitute each other. Therefore, I would try to learn what would motivate them by asking them. Involving, trusting, inspiring, appreciating what they do, rewarding, challenging, and celebrating are ways to motivate the employees.  

Once, I was leading a small task force with a lot of work to be handled in a very short period ofo time. Everyone was very stressed. I thought I could motivate the people by involving the members in the planning efforts. We planned together the work calendar with targets, resources, etc. This careful and naive behavior encouraged them to play by the action plan and fortunately, we could finish our duties by their deadlines.
