A motivated team of radio presenters will undoubtedly perform better and help make your life as Programme Director much easier.

But keeping your team motivated may not feature highly on your list of priorities when you're busy with other duties. So, with that in mind, here is a list of quick & simple ideas so you can offer motivation without it stealing too much of your time.
