employees, both on a large and small scale, even though it will be even better. As
long as it is a positive thing, we must continue to appreciate it. Giving awards like
this will be very important for them so that it can increase their motivation to work
harder.

employees who make mistakes. This is intended so that employees can learn from
the mistakes they make. So that we can engage in discussions with employees to
find solutions to correct existing errors.

4. Maintain good social interactions

better. When we care about our employees, it will indirectly make employees feel
reluctant to us.

output. Motivation can make employee performance faster and maximal.
