So what is a leader’s role when it comes to motivation?

A leader's role is NOT to try to be the SOURCE of motivation for others. This sets up a very short-term strategy whereby, if the leader is not present motivation ceases.

A leader's role is to create an environment where others can find their own sources of motivation for themselves, so that they can become self-motivated, AND, where that motivation can grow and thrive. In this way a leader can empower and support their people’s growth and development.
