I had the pleasure of learning two concepts ( part of Herzberg's motivation-hygiene theory) when it relates to work environments : "Hygiene factors" and "Motivators" Figure out what the hygiene factors (typically pay, good physical working conditions etc) are and fix them first if they are lacking. The motivators are typically industry specific and group specific. Some (in) formal surveys should help but ensure that people _know_ that their voices are being heard while you bring about the change. Good luck! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-factor_theory https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-factor_theory
