Description

Successful managers and supervisors know how to foster an environment where employees become self-motivated, positive and dedicated. Today's workplace requires more than just fair pay and a good benefits package to achieve such a condition.

In the final analysis, one person cannot motivate another. What that person can do, though, is inspire and enable others to motivate themselves. Participants in this workshop will learn how to identify motivational hot buttons that help get workers on board and engaged in organization goals.

  • Identify systems and practices within your organization that sabotage motivational efforts
  • Identify key behavioral factors necessary to inspire people individually
  • Understand the differences between creating an environment that inspires motivation and one that demands motivation
  • Understand statements that management make that can undermine motivation attempts
  • Explore widely recognized motivational practices and principles
  • Practice giving positive feedback and recognition based on objective observation
  • Learn when to coach and when to give up
  • Learn ways to keep outside pressures from blowing up inside the workplace
