Since I run the place, I could just tell them what I want done, but I prefer to explain the reason for something to be done in terms of its benefit to us. It takes longer, but once they understand the concept, it makes my life easier and they make better decisions.
I have dictated when I couldn't get them to understand, but that is the exception.
I also praise them when they are successful. I don't give backrubs, but I've got mostly 22 to 60 year old guys in my store. Yuck!
