What Motivates Testers?
Managers: What is a key reason that your software testers may not be motivated – or even worse – think about leaving?
The American Psychological Association found that when employees feel their supervisor supports their career development, nearly 90% say they are motivated to do their best work.
On the other hand, if employees don't feel the supervisor's support for their career development, less than 50% are motivated to do their best work, and most say they intend to seek employment outside the organization within the next year.
That is why ongoing QA education, certifications, and micro-credentials are so important. Giving your testers the freedom to explore new testing tools or dig into new testing approaches gets them excited about what they do. Giving them recognition through certifications and micro-credentials keeps them motivated – and makes sure they aren't just exploring but actually learning.
