Speaker: Jean Houston Shore, Author of the “Working Together Better” reference guide.

Topic: “Motivation, Morale and Mayhem: Improving Your Performance”

Improving motivation and performance in your organization isn’t possible unless you understand how core values and beliefs drive employee behaviors. Executive facilitator and author Jean Houston Shore guides us as we demonstrate how variations in values and beliefs push employees toward choices that may not support corporate strategy. Key motivation strategies are reviewed and stages of values development are examined.

Jean will:

• Reveal the “Two Buckets” of Motivation Strategies
• Guide Us to Diagnose a Real-Life Performance Issue
• Explain How Closely-Held Values Develop and Fit In

Jean Houston Shore works with organizations that want their people to work together better and will people who want to achieve more in life. Her book, the Working Together Better reference guide, has been hailed as “a concise handbook every manager should have at the ready.”
