Motivating Your Team 2020 - 31 January 2020 13.30-16.30

The importance of having motivated individuals and teams is obvious from the perspective of working environments and productivity. The question is how much time we proactively commit to motivational activities. There have always been discussions around who is responsible for the motivation of an individual ranging from totally the manager to totally the individual. Certainly, everyone has responsibilities but to what degree? It is true that Managers can influence motivation and for that matter also demotivation.

This half day session gives you the opportunity to consider your role in motivating the team, covering key principles and getting you to focus on the individuals that you manage/coach/motivate. It starts by reviewing the principles of motivation and aspects that motivate us. It then considers our role as an influencer, before focussing on the specific individuals that you manage.

The style of the session will be interactive and practical with the emphasis on you immediately using the skills back in your workplace
