The new science of motivation has identified exciting and effective alternatives to the traditional ways that people have been motivated in the workplace.

In this webinar, best-selling author and motivation expert Susan Fowler will show you how to open your mind to a different way of motivating yourself as an individual.

You’ll learn:

  • How to choose a higher quality of motivational experience
  • How motivation is a skill that can be taught, learned, nurtured, and sustained
  • The three ways you can apply motivation skills—at an individual level, as a leader, or from an organizational perspective

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how to shift from a quantity of motivation to a quality of motivation experience. Motivation is a skill that any individual can learn and that managers can use to foster a more optimally motivating environment.

Presenter : Susan Fowler (LinkedIn profile) Senior Consulting Partner The Ken Blanchard Companies is co author with Ken Blanchard of Self Leadership and the One Minute Manager: Increasing Effectiveness Through Situational Self Leadership. In this captivating business parable, the authors tell the story of a young advertising executive who is about to lose his job. During a series of talks with a gifted magician he comes to realize the power of taking responsibility for his situation and not playing the victim. Passing along the knowledge learned from the One Minute Manager, the magician teaches the three skills of self leadership. These three techniques not only empower him to keep his job but show him what he needs to know in order to keep growing, learning, and achieving.
