Realising potential : the new motivation game

Gee, C; Burke, ME

Abstract

This article establishes the role played by the manager in motivating his or her employees on a consistent basis. The restructuring of the economy in the 1980s and 1990s directly challenged the manager’s task in motivating employees by increasing the sense of job insecurity and eroding the concept of company loyalty. Two methods of realising employees’ potential are examined – that of teamworking and that of teleworking.
