It is a challenge to figure out how to motivate people. I've found that people are most motivated when they feel fulfilled and valued in their jobs, like the matter. It helps for employees to have a sense that their talents and abilities are being used to good advantage and that they have room to grow. Praise is also a strong motivator. I don't mean telling people their great as an empty gesture but more along the lines of praising people for the skills they do well and doing it continually. Thanks for the ideas Harvey.
