Our target

Quoted from DB

I'm all for that ££££££££ is the best incentive

Ha! Actually it's not....

Most corporate surveys (usually by HR teams) come back with money being about the 4th most important motivator for people. Things like fulfilling roles, personal development and being supported by your manager score higher.

Money becomes a key motivator when you are low paid or paid below the average for your role or industry.

But, for some individuals it is more important than other factors. You may be one of those individuals.

So were in 23rd place and your motivation speech to the players is 'I want you to support me and I will help you to fulfil your role for the team and personal development'

My motivation speech would be ' £1,000 each for every game you win paid after were safe from relegation. Relegated nothing'

Now the players are probably paid the average but an extra 18 games , £18,000, to me is a very good incentive.

Which do you think sounds the best if you were a player

For me personally their were and are many factors that motivate me including money which pays the bills and puts food on the table. Belief in Jesus Christ is also a good motivator.

I could have sworn that this was in response to my post about offering the players a bonus for every point they got.

Belief in Jesus Christ will not get us a single point and won't make any of our players play better.

Indeed, because Jesus saves and Payne knocks in the rebound.

Amazing how many players look up to the sky and make the sign of the cross when they go onto the pitch.

Undeniable proof of Jesus' intervention in the outcome of Grimsby games.

That  survey is about job satisfaction, not motivation. It's satisfying being told you've done a good job, but the motivation is not the same thing.

Quoted from pen penfras

I'm referring to several surveys and they were about motivation. Although motivation and job satisfaction have a close link. People who have job satisfaction tend to be more motivated and demonstrate greater discretionary effort than other colleagues.

I'm pleased you think so

I don't. If there was a God I would hope that he or she might have some more important things to do than worry about the result at Blundell Park.
