The guideline to create work performance motivation according to the Four Saṅgahavatthu of educational institution administrators under the Office of Loei Primary Educational Service Area 1 was that educational institutions should assess the efficiency or competency of teachers before assigning tasks to perform. After that, the results of the evaluation should be used to plan for assigning tasks to meet the teacher's aptitude with consistency. There should be a relationship in working together, and encouragement with polite words when the teachers complete the tasks. Administrators should provide knowledge and understanding, advise, promote, and assist teachers to solve problems in the operation of personnel. Educational institutions should be managed by providing an environment conducive to teaching and learning and adequately supporting equipment resources. Administrators should provide competent and dedicated teachers the opportunity to perform in higher positions. Educational institutions must be fair in evaluating performance for salary increases and allow teachers to continuously develop themselves. Administrators should delegate authority and decision-making to teachers in their work and should assign special tasks thoroughly so that teachers can fully demonstrate their abilities.
