Motivation and Delegation

Motivation and Delegation - a 1-day in-house training course

Motivation is the fuel that each person brings to work every day and the quality of that fuel determines what can be achieved in any organisation. In this course delegates will learn what motivates and demotivates different people including Generation Y and Generation Z.

During this course, participants will get an insight into Herzberg's influential Motivation-Hygiene theory and see how job satisfaction is not the opposite of job dissatisfaction. They will be introduced to the six core needs in the Human Needs Model, and how its application can radically enhance their ability to engage people successfully in their work.

The link between delegation and motivation or demotivation lies in how cohesive the agreements made between manager and team member are. Applying this principle, the course will address why not all managers delegate and will provide answers to the essential questions: what to delegate, how to choose the right person for which task, and what agreements to put in place to monitor progress and how to evaluate success.

Background information to this Motivation and Delegation course

The Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) highlight the importance of the manager as the key reason why people stay or go from organisations. Feeling valued by their manager at work affects employee motivation and team morale.

The evolution of the employee-manager relationship was one of the top two reasons for staying in a job, as demonstrated in a recent survey focusing on motivation factors. Understanding what motivates people requires a grasp of different personality types and how to get the best out of each individual. This knowledge is also key to developing the skill of effective delegation which, though often underused, is essential to successful business performance.

This training course is for managers who wish to improve the morale of those they manage.
