The results are in! Research shows that the manager is the reason staff are disengaged, uninspired, underproductive - and ultimately leave.
Luckily, you can fix that quickly and easily. When you do, your team will perform better and be happier - and so will you!
The good news is that the most effective way to fix these issues is also free – and easy to apply if you know the secret.
Three key research studies point to the connection with staff – understanding and meeting their needs (or managing their expectations) is critical to your success as a manager.
Connection begins with conversation but most managers don't talk to their staff enough, about the right things or in the right way.
In this session, we will demystify this process and give you a step by step roadmap that has helped numerous engineering organisations increase employee motivation, engagement, utilisation and profitability per head.
If your success depends on your ability to motivate and retain a great team this session is not to be missed.
