Depends what is the reason behind it. If a team member is not motivated at times, I talk to them 1 on 1 to find out why that is. If the whole team dynamic changes I organise a call to talk it out, address their concerns off record to they could be honest and open.
And if someone is exhausted, I just back off and let them take it slow for a bit. It's very important to take care of your team so no one burns out.
However it happens very rarely because we do our best to always give people context so everyone knows the ultimate goal we are working towards. It gives a lot of motivation when the team understands the WHY behind everything.
I motivate my team by just being me - advocating that even the tenured ones are susceptible to mistakes, and that we have to continue learning everyday. By accepting and taking ownership of your mistakes and errors. Positivity in the midst of failures. Encouraging words even if you think there's nothing to be thankful for. Respect for everybody's opinion and situation.
Sharing positive vibes and energy helps. Regular affirmations and a pat on the shoulder is a great way to boost confidence. This makes the stress easier to handle.
