Building, Leading and Managing a Self-Motivated Workforce

free

In an entertaining, engaging and informative presentation, Doug Walker shares the Map of Intrinsic Motivation Points (an Internal Controls Metamodel), and two of his problem-solving applications:

• ALDEEP: A three-phase conversation template for addressing and improving individual performance issues
• Rapid Conflict Resolution: An eight question template for resolving conflicts between two or more employees

Walker established his initial model more than 10 years ago. It continues to prove extremely powerful in helping leaders and managers understand that they can influence and inspire, but not control their employees into optimal performance. As leaders and managers evolve their paradigm from a belief in external controls to an understanding of internal controls, they discover an array of tools and applications that are effective -- they will not only produce desired results, they will also reduce stress for both themselves and their employees.
 
You will find yourself learning things in this presentation that you’ll be utilizing later that same day. As a past participant in one of Walker's presentations said, “I love this. Once you learn it, you can’t not use it.”
