This workshop packs in a host of important up-to-date thinking and evidenced practice and aims to help managers understand how to spot the signs of motivation (or lack of it) and how to build engagement at work. It clarifies the critical difference between true motivators and maintenance factors, which do not de-motivate, but are important to managing motivation and engagement in a team.

There is an option after the scheduled mid-session break to have two topics or go for an overview with tips and guidance, depending on your needs. A short learning guide with some templates supports the learning.

• Identify key motivating factors that affect people at work
• Learn some ideas and approaches for effective engagement
• Understand your role in staff motivation and be able to spot the signs and levels of motivation in others
• Learn some models and tools
• Learn about current evidenced-based thinking that supports having the appropriate approach to motivation at work

This session is appropriate to all line managers, team leads and supervisors.

A highly practical half-day workshop (three hours) for a group of up to 12 people. A short mid-session break is included in these timings.
