The lack of discrete motivation strategies to improve the consistency of employees' performances was the problem that instigated this research. The purpose of this single-case study was to explore the motivation strategies live-entertainment artistic directors (ADs) use to improve consistency in the artists' performances. Data were collected within an international live-entertainment company to uncover whether artists self-determined the approach to improving consistency in performance or whether consistency occurred from strategies developed by the ADs. Data were collected from face-to-face interviews with ADs and senior ADs and performance evaluations of employees, and then analyzed using Miles, Huberman, and Saldana's data analysis method. The 2 emergent themes indicated that the ADs achieved consistency from performers through strategies supporting well-being and technical proficiency. Analysis of employee evaluations indicated the use of alternative motivational strategies for achieving and improving consistency at the show level. Some ADs rely on artists to self-determine consistency when working in environments perceived as conducive to consistent behavior. These findings might result in a mutual understanding between employers and employees of the role of consistency in employees' live performances, which may also improve employer-to-employee relationships in the live-entertainment sector. Such understanding might lead to positive social change by improving cultural output to the community and improving employees' economic viability and ability to contribute to society.
