Low and No-Cost Methods to Motivate Employees

Course Description:

How do you think your employees feel?  Like they’re going above and beyond expectations, getting squeezed to perform, and nobody really cares?  Chances are that could be the case.

What’s worse? Today’s sluggish economy, decreasing budgets and little time for creativity has made it increasingly difficult for managers to find the time and resources needed to truly recognize and reward employees the right way.

Yet, cash isn’t the only motivator that keeps employees happy, involved, and productive.  In fact, utilizing low- and no-cost methods can truly make a little go a long way.  And surprisingly enough, no-cost rewards are often those employees desire most, so recognizing a good day's work might be easier than you think!

Join CCM in this invaluable audio conference to learn key skills, best practice techniques and even a few tricks to keep your employees motivated, excited and on top of their game.  In just 75 minutes our expert faculty will help you to:

• Identify the types of rewards employees value most
• Recognize when and how to reward individuals and when team recognition makes more sense
• Remove organizational barriers that stand in the way of individual and group performance
• Improve communication channels and utilize simple conversational techniques to boost productivity
• Identify non-monetary rewards your employees will love
• Get the timing right, knowing when to reward is half the battle
• Avoid fatal pitfalls that can negate the benefits of an employee recognition program
