Motivating people in the work place can be a challenge because of everyone being different and being motivated in different ways. Managers need to take a survey of their workers to see what may motivate them in their work and what their desire in the work place is. Many have different reasons for working in the first place.
The first thing that FMC Green River should do is to survey the plant to see what expectations the employees have and what could motivate them to do their jobs better. Because this plant has so many people, a survey would be good to use so that each person can put what they think about the job they are doing, what they would like to see happen, and the places they see them self going in the company. This will give the manager a place to start.
Having a vision statement helps the employees to know where the company is going. It gives them something to look at to get them excited about the changes that will be taking place. Get the employees involved with this vision statement. Involving people can help them feel a part of the company and get them motivated. They should also use intrinsic motivation because people are more likely to perform more highly when they are doing something for the enjoyment or a personal reason to get the job done right. This could involve being recognized for what they do an opportunity for advancement, a feeling of accomplishing a task, having the responsibility, and making the work interesting and being challenged.

Being a part of a team helps the people to do the job because of their wants and needs. This is a very important part of making people feel they are giving something to the company on their own and have a way of fulfilling their personally goals. If people also like who they work with this also helps them to do a job better. If a team is like this they become closer and the willing to achieve as a group becomes even better. The communication between them is better and they will want to be the best they can be as a team.
I do believe that these motivating ideas would work in any company as it is just a basic way of the human nature that helps these ideas work. It may take sometime time and patience's, but I really believe this can work it any place of business whether in be a team or conventional place of business.
