Today’s high-performing organizations succeed with a self-motivated workforce, not parental, authoritative management.  It’s not luck or a single personality; it’s the output of a good performance management system. In this highly-interactive, objective-driven, skill-based workshop, identify managerial competencies for creating relationships that sustain motivation.  Learn the attributes, philosophies and techniques for attracting and retaining a motivated workforce. Assess your style of communicating and understand how that style either supports or hinders the motivation of individuals. Develop your own personal capacity to remain motivated and contribute to the motivation of others.

Topics

  • How the evolution of workplace relationships requires new attitudes and approaches
  • Review of the core theories of motivation
  • Systems and skills essential to supporting individual motivation
  • Best practices of high-performance organizations
  • Motivating self, motivating others
