Event Information:
MOTIVATING AND LEADING EMPLOYEES

Motivating and leading employees requires effective management practices and strong leadership skills. The evidence is that companies with high levels of employee ownership outperform others.

Employee ownership by definition challenges traditional management attitudes towards employees. At the very least it creates an expectation of achieving a genuine balance in the interests of the company and employees.

 
     
 

Brief Description

Research shows that the interrelationship of sound employee involvement practices with employee ownership has a positive effect on motivation and performance.

These are risky times for shareholders, but there is no better time to put the spotlight on employee ownership. People are at the heart of the productivity challenge. The skills, flexibility and ability to adapt of workers are key components of broader economic performance. Creative, knowledge-rich, innovative, highly productive work requires a high trust, people-driven organisation. An effective working environment depends on having a well-trained and motivated workforce throughout an organization.

Employees need more than proper tools and support to do their job effectively. Many employers believe that money is the most effective motivator. This approach is costly and non-sustainable. A positive corporate culture and a pleasant work environment are more important than money to most good employees.
