"Employees feel motivated when they are appreciated. I do my best to praise employees for their performance and show them they are valuable not only to the team but the entire company as their efforts contribute to meeting the mission."

Motivated employees are productive employees. Talk to the interviewer about how you ensure that your team is motivated and as productive as possible.

"My formula for a motivated team is to get to know them, what they are passionate about, and how they like to be recognized. If I can provide them with proper recognition and tasks that they enjoy and feel they are good at, then they will be motivated employees."

First, you have to get to know them and how they work. Through that, you can support them through both the good and rough times. Everyone is a little different.

You have a great start here, but I suggest being more specific about what actions you take to support and motivate others. You mention "support," but what does that look like/ (Example: personal check-ins, providing incentives, verbal recognition, etc.) Providing more clear, specific examples will help your interviewers to better understand your management style and if it is a fit for this open position.
