What I Have Learned In JROTC My name is Cadet Evans. The JROTC program has prepared me to be a better citizen in many ways. Leadership skills, history, and life skills I believe are the three most important ways the program has made me a better citizen.

The employee's familiar positive tone and high energy approach to the job and the workplace seem to be on the wane. You really don't know what is going on with this person. But, you can try to start to understand this employee by examining various motivation theories. Use elements from each of Maslow's theory, Herzberg's Two-Factor theory, and Equity theory and assemble your own motivation theory to help you to start understanding this employee.
Motivation is what arouses someone's interest, directs their performance and sets the amount of energy that a person puts into achieving their goal. There are a number of factors which can affect motivation levels in the workplace such as: the relationships between co-workers; stress levels; recognition and praise; alignment of goals; and standards set. Recognition and praise from senior staff and management for the work an employee does demonstrates to the employee that they are appreciated. This can result in increased motivation to perform to high standards and a feeling of duty towards a company. A lack of recognition for good work can dramatically reduce motivation as staff feel undervalued and unappreciated, a person may work hard for an employer who does not appreciate them.
