New Year and new resolutions, right?
When we set any goal or resolution, as it usually happens every January 1st, there is something we must take into account. Without motivation, it is difficult to achieve what we have set out to do.
In addition, in the business environment, we can also make some decisions to influence the motivation of our employees or colleagues.

In last week’s post, we opened the discussion about the salary that each worker deserves, based on the value they bring to the company.
It is a topic that, without a doubt, companies must take into account in order to keep employees motivated and engaged.
The truth is, it’s such an extensive topic that I could record several more videos.

Before you continue reading, I want to warn you about something: today I’m going to talk about a taboo topic.
I’m going to talk about money.
It’s a topic that is sometimes uncomfortable, but I want to emphasize how important it is to be able to talk about money, especially in the business environment.
More specifically, today I would like to talk about salaries. And if we narrow it down further, I’d like to talk about the salary that heuristic workers should receive.
What are heuristic workers? Well, heuristic workers are those who have more than one path to reach the proposed objective, and, therefore, their level of motivation and commitment will be closely related to the results of their work.

Are you also more creative than ever when you’re not working?
It’s logical. The reason is that the creative part of our brain is activated when we are relaxed.
But when your brain is relaxed, it tends to shoot without aiming, and it doesn’t distinguish between what’s important and what’s not, or between what’s urgent and what’s not.
And it’s precisely for this reason that you need a method. And today I want to tell you about one of the good ones, one that I assure you works.
It is a Lean methodology called the Hypothesis Priorization Canvas. Do you want to know what this method is about? Press play!
