management approach involves creating budgets to understand and make decisions about where your money is going. It also involves knowing

Creative Ways to Motivate Your Employees
The common thread that runs through all small businesses, from professional services to manufacturing, is that a motivated workforce is central to the business’s success.
Here are some quick, inexpensive, and potentially effective ways to motivate your employees and improve your employee retention.
Weekly “Good News” Emails
Too often the business day can be about addressing problems or issues, large and small. We forget to recognize the “wins” and other positive accomplishments. Yet, it is the successes we achieve that inspire us to reach new heights.
Encourage Mental Breaks
Whether it is making sure employees go out for lunch, take a mid-day walk, or even take a short “power nap,” these breaks away from the grind can re-energize, refresh, and even lead to new ideas.
Be Visible
As a leader, your troops appreciate your visibility and a human connection to you. Walk around the floor. Write handwritten notes of appreciation. Roll up your sleeves to help meet a deadline.
Break the Routine
Think about bringing in a community speaker for a “lunch and learn” session. Perhaps even sponsor a “bring your pet to work day!” Changing up the routine inspires, invigorates, and makes it more fun to be at work.
Invite Staff to Client Visits
Not only will an employee appreciate the opportunity to visit with a client and the vote of confidence it implies, but he or she will gain a valuable perspective on what a client needs and the integral role he or she has in delivering your service or product.

Have A Question About This Topic?
Have you ever needed Financial Guidance, but instead got a sales pitch for specific products or service without the Advisor even understanding your specific situation or what you wanted accomplished?
My passion for helping clients get better financial outcomes came from years of being a single parent balancing work and children. I experienced firsthand the lack of personalized financial guidance in running my household and consequently, made costly mistakes.
