Overview

Motivation Mastery for Every Team Leader and Entrepreneur - The Critical Leadership Skill

What you'll learn:
  • To gain mastery over your own behavior and to maximize your influence over your employees and associates.
  • To learn a model of analyzing and solving human performance problems.
  • You will learn an inclusive model that includes spiritual, social and situational motivation.
  • To learn to apply the science of behavior management to yourself and others.
  • You will learn how Lean management (Toyota Production System) employs the forces of motivation to engage and optimize human performance.

Your success is your ability to motivate and develop your team and team members. If they perform, you perform. This course will provide those skills that are critical to your success.

Motivation is not a speech or pep talk! It is the skill of creating a worthy purpose, an effective team environment, designing work for intrinsic motivation, and using positive reinforcement in an effective way. This course will enable you to develop a system of sustained motivation for yourself and your team.

I have authored eleven books and the key to getting books published is simply the self-discipline to sit yourself down and write! I have been CEO of two companies and consulted with more than one hundred major corporations on improving human performance. In this course I have distilled the science of human behavior down to the essential practical lessons that every entrepreneur and manager must know and practice to succeed.

The topics covered in the course include the following:

  • Sources of Motivation

  • Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation

  • Optimizing Social Reinforcement

  • Developing a System of Motivation

  • The ABC Model of Managing Behavior

  • Using Reinforcement Schedules

  • Is it a “Can’t Do” or a “Won’t Do?”

  • Managing Yourself. The Biggest Challenge!
