ABSTRACT

It may seem futile to offer a section on motivating the most difficult staff members, because you have probably attempted to do this so many times with frustrating results . However, it may be important to revisit motivation in terms of working with these staff members . It is also valuable to keep in mind that op­ portunities to reinforce or motivate resistant staffers may occur very infrequently. We must become aware of and act upon these chances when they present themselves.
