Saturn-mars aspects...conjunction .

Saturn-mars-mercury-MC = easy aspects. In the boss' chart that is.

Or 5th house placements. 5th house is all sunny and inspiring onto others

Even 1st house and 10th house sun/mercury /mars. Especially 10th house.

I feel even 4th house placements...(sun/mercury/mars)

I think we need to look at the ACTIVE planets - sun...mercury..mars. Moon/venus are feminine and thus, passive.

Even ascendant - because your ascendant will decide your 3rd house, 10th house.


I will look up my dad's chart ..he's very motivating, his subordinates even emotionally open up to him..he has tremendous influence.

I think it really comes down to how much you enjoy what you do. If you are not happy in your career you will not be motivated to work very hard, where as if you are in a career that you love, you'll likely strive to do well.
I think how your manager treats you makes a HUGE difference in your motivation.

You can be in a career you love with a horrible manager and not be motivated to strive. If your manager stifles you, you wouldn't be happy.
You can also be in a career you loathe, however, a motivational manager can sometimes be enough to make you happy.

It's not about me, personally.

I'm more interested in the management aspect of motivating employees to want to strive and do better. I was wondering if you knew their chart, then which aspect to work from.
when I assigned the core members of my team....I initially looked at moon/mercury and then mars.

I had to pair people up between two different physical sites and some had never even spoken or been in the same room as the other.

It's now nine months later and I'm thrilled with how it turned out.

I stayed away from same elements paired with the same elements....I took some risks and paired fixed with mutable and cardinal and mutable.....those were my best matches. fixed and cardinal....sometimes you get a pissing match (lol).

I also needed a very detailed data analyst and interviewed several.....one stuck out to me......libra sun/scorp moon/virgo venus/mars gemini.......five months later and this person has exceeded all my expectations......extremely detail oriented, organised, can be locked in his office for hours on end, can also get along well with others......he is truly magic with his skill set.

It really depends on what the objective and deliverable is.

We also use the Culture Index....but I think that is just a bunch of hogwash.

I had a feeling that astrology could play into it successfully.

...so as a manager, you manage the employee in a way that will make them love what they do. Mission accomplished. Bring forth what they love and their strengths - make them feel valued and useful(may include placing them in some other role). Imo, the best way of making people do things, and to do it well, is to make them want to.
