Mastering Motivation

It’s no secret. Employees who feel they are valued and recognized for the work they do are more motivated, responsible and productive than those who don’t.

This practical, hands-on, interactive course will help participants learn the most effective way to motivate others. We’ll also discuss how to tell whether it’s motivation or training that a team really needs, how to use consequences to motivate your team and how to develop a motivational plan that meets a work group’s needs. Return to the workplace ready to apply specific and practical motivation tools and techniques that can bring real results.
