In any job it is important to know how to motivate yourself and, of course, other people. In this programme we will look at some of the general patterns of motivation which apply to all of us. We will examine your personal motivating factors and how to use them, then apply the same principles to motivating others. A guide to better management is a collection of twelve titles based on neuro linguistic programming.

In this programme we will consider how you can ensure that you have prepared well to enrich your decision making and be confident that your decision, when implemented, will work.

As a manager you are a role model to your staff – so what sort of example are you setting? In this programme you will find out what being a role model really means and how to consciously set a good example in behaviour and attitudes. We will also consider how you can use role models yourself to improve the example you set for others.

Restructuring, new responsibilities, updated systems – just a few examples that require us to view change positively and treat it as an opportunity, as opposed to a disruption. You will also learn how to help others to deal more positively with change so that you can all approach it far more constructively. You will be encouraged to not just manage change but to actively promote it as a more satisfying way of life.

Do you ever wish there were more hours in a day and wonder how you are going to fit everything in? In this programme we will explore how better planning can save you time. How being ready for whatever you have to do allows you to use your time more effectively and how to make time management techniques fit your personal preferences. We also deal with the problem of time-wasters and offer strategies for reducing their effect so that you have control of your time.

Every manager has to influence others more, as we change from command and control management to a more empowered work force. In this programme you will explore the preparation and techniques which enable you to be a powerful and ethical influencer. You will add to that, the skills for handling negotiations so that both sides feel they have gained and come to win…win.
