Leader and Manager Essentials: Motivating and Engaging Teams

Wednesday 11 June 10:00 until 12:00

Online

Part of the series: Leader and Manager Essentials

Target Audience: All staff (Academic and Professional Services) with or taking on management/leadership responsibilities.

The ability to motivate and engage is a key factor in effective management and leadership, and critical to an organisation’s success.

Motivated people have a positive outlook, they're excited about what they're doing, and they know that they're investing their time in something that's truly worthwhile. They are also highly adaptable, particularly when it comes to change.

Teams are made up of individuals who have their own unique circumstances, backgrounds and experiences. Consequently, each person may be driven by different motivating factors, and be more or less adept at self-motivation.

This workshop will explore the different types of motivation and ways to create a working environment in which team members are motivated and engaged.

This workshop will cover:

•   The different types of motivation
•   The value of employee engagement
•   Your role as a manager or leader in fostering a motivated mindset
•   Strategies and tips for tailoring your approach to motivation.
