Recently I read some blogs in The Lounge that speak to student retention and it reminded me how important tapping into the motivation of adult learners is to their success in school. I also started to think again about retention of our faculty amidst competing responsibilities and teaching workloads. Surely tapping into the motivation of our instructors, just as we encourage our instructors to do so with their students, is an important factor of faculty retention.

Please let me invite our Faculty Coaches to share what they feel are motivational factors for our instructors.
