"First and foremost, I motivate my team by setting a good example. I show enthusiasm for new projects, find the best in all our partners in the organization, and try to keep things light. Second, I understand that not all team members are motivated by the same incentives. Some enjoy praise for their work, while others like to be rewarded with more responsibility. Getting to know my team members and what motivates them is key for any good leader. Third, I like to 'let loose' with my team during slower times. In the past, we have gone bowling, gone to a baseball game and had holiday parties."
