Are all listeners motivated by the same things how can you tell?

Motivation means different things to different people. It does not need to be a 'thing' that you do. And if you see it as a culture rather than, 'We're doing Motivation today', it becomes a whole lot easier. People get motivated in all sorts of ways - the key is to find out what the 'hot-button' is for each and every one of them - accepting they will be different. This is not as complicated as it might seem - if you do your homework! The average person when asked how to motivate someone will tell you what motivates him or her. Unfortunately, everyone is different and what motivates one employee may only make another employee angry. The method we use to motivate each employee must be tailored to the individual employee. We must offer them something that value as an incentive to work towards a goal. One size does not fit all when it comes to motivation.
