The Best of Motives

The Purpose of this training video: To ensure managers inform and involve their teams in order to improve motivation and productivity.

Research shows that the two most common complaints in organizations worldwide are ‘nobody ever tells us' and ‘nobody ever asks us'. The best of motives consists of two videos which tackle each of these issues.

In part 1: Nobody Ever Tells Us, a manager believes that his staff are idle and need constant chasing. However he is failing to put their roles into context and not until he receives the same treatment from his fitness instructor does he realize that he needs to adopt a more motivational approach. This means keeping people informed, knowing how to measure performance and offering praise and encouragement.

Part 2: Nobody Ever Asks us shows how projects can fail when a manager tries to take on too much responsibility. It is important to let the team help decide the best course of action to help the project succeed. Lessons managers will learn include welcoming suggestions, requesting help and using the individual skills of the team. The final lesson is that people need results to achieve, not tasks to perform if they are to be productive, successful and willing to contribute to the business.
