Effective Leadership – Getting People to Do Stuff SEMINAR & TRAINING 
Just because you’re “in charge,” doesn’t mean that people will do what you want them to do. Being in charge doesn’t even mean that employees will do what you pay them to do.
Getting people to do things is especially challenging in volunteer organizations where people are not receiving monetary compensation.
This session covers everything you need to know about the best ways to educate, motivate, and reward your team members.
Michael Angelo Caruso teaches why money doesn’t motivate most people and what two things do.
He’ll cover the four most challenging work personalities, giving special attention to handling negative people. You’ll learn a simple, yet effective technique for confidence that few leaders use practice and the best way to offer criticism.
Unfortunately, most managers try to motivate employees using three tools that usually don’t motivate: job descriptions, performance reviews and evaluation forms that are linked to money.
Source material includes the work of Elton Mayo, the man who founded the modern day Human Resource department; Douglas MacGregor, who conceptualized Theory X and Theory Y management in his book, The Human Side of Enterprise; and Jim Collins, author of Good to Great.
Strong leaders understand psychology
You’ll also apply the psychoanalytical concept known as the “Pain/Pleasure Principle,” which shows that the most efficient and effective form of motivation can be surprisingly simple.
This program teaches how to motivate employees using “hot and cold water.” Using the “hot and cold water” technique, managers can take themselves out of the “bad guy” role forever.
