Seminar details (team leading through personal and personnel development):

It is not always easy to get people to do what you want them to do.  It’s not always easy to get people to do what you pay them to do.  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 draws from 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 Michael’s audio program titled, “Effective Coaching,” which is guaranteed to improve your most important relationships within 30 days.  You’ll also apply the psychoanalytical concept known as the pain/pleasure principle that shows us that the most efficient 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.
