Motivating the "un-motivated" really comes down to that individual person. Some Soldiers will respond to one thing but not others. For some, all they need is to be taken aside and be told to straighten up while others will only respond to counseling statements and things like that. I think sometimes,we as leaders fall into the trap of thinking that since one thing worked for Soldier A it will work for Soldier B.

To be clear, morale is "the state of mind of an individual"...and some people are truly being all that they can ever be. To many of them, the military is a job, not a calling.

folks, this is where NCO's assist their battle buddies, and do not leave him/her behind. You need to have their six, because, someday, you just might need them to have your 6.
