In my current job I am in a supervisory position, and I have to make decisions every day on how to better my division/unit and those I work with. One of those daily decisions is continuously observing, figuring out everyone's personality, and how I'm going to keep them motivated in wanting to do better each day. If I'm able to provide guidance and motivation daily, tailored differently to each individual, then each one of them will excel in their positions and receive outstanding performance evaluations at the end of the year.

By incorporating the scientific method and approaching my situation in a more rational way I can decide on a plan and test out my theories on what I think will best help improve my team. If for whatever reason they receive below average in the performance of their duties, it's back to the drawing board. I would reevaluate how each individual operates and what they're passionate about. If I put in more time to understanding their passions and individual goals and offer my help for them to reach those goals, then they will put in the extra effort, and subsequently their efforts will not go unnoticed. Their performance evaluations will exceed expectations at the end of the year.

Is this example, described above, still an appropriate use of the scientific method. If so, describe how you would implement the use of the scientific method? What results, if any, might you expect to see from your application of the scientific method?
