Motivate and Engage People

Editable training materials for a bite-size session on Motivating people. Get materials for BOTH face to face and virtual delivery at no extra cost.

Keeping people motivated is part of the job of any manager or team leader. If motivation is high, people are more likely to be engaged in what they do, and it usually follows that work performance is high. Motivation and Engagement is something internal to an individual, and cannot be imposed. However, managers CAN help to create the conditions where motivation will be more likely. This Power Hour is all about helping you to spot and take practical action to maximise those opportunities.

By the end of the Power Hour you will be able to: 

  • Identify what motivates people… and what doesn’t 
  • Describe 2 different theories of motivation and identify where people are in relation to them 
  • Identify specific actions you can take to create conditions that will motivate and engage the people you work with.

To get a flavour of the core session, you can download our free Key Points Sheet and view the optional Power Point Slides in PDF format on the next page.

Much more detail is included in the training session plan and detailed delegate workbook which you get when you purchase.
