In today's turbulent environment, success depends on employees using  their skills and capabilities to the fullest. Employee motivation can be  a challenge at work. Those leaders who don’t emphasize employee  satisfaction as a key part of the organizational strategy will not be  able to leverage the potential of the human assets to the fullest.

Every person needs motivation at work. The reasons for working vary  widely, but we all work because we obtain something that we need from  work. This affects morale, production, retention, and overall quality of  life. To create positive employee motivation, employees must have a  voice and feel that they are worthy to the team and to the organization.

Based on your research using the module readings, Argosy University  online library, and Internet resources, respond to the following:

• Can leaders really motivate employees? If so, how and for how long? 
• Is there a way to create and sustain a motivating environment that will also help retain talent? What is it? How does it work?

By the due date assigned, post your response to the appropriate Discussion Area. Through the end of the module, review and comment on at least two peers’ responses.

Write your initial response in 300–500 words
