The basics of our approach

Our training approach is based on the following principles:

  • Attachment to work is not genetic.
  • No employee specifically plans to be mediocre.
  • We need others to feel appreciated and valued.
  • Any work environment can be productive, motivating and satisfying.

In other words, motivation and enthusiasm at work are developed!

Our approach

It is simple and accessible to all.

  • Simple, humorous presentations, based on the practical experience and background of the facilitator.
  • Presentations packed with concrete examples and situations.
  • Simple solutions that apply everywhere with no significant investment in time and effort.

Principal themes

Leadership on a daily basis: what motivates people at work

Certain essential activities of daily life, such as work, do not necessarily bring pleasure and motivating people with money requires a great deal of money! What can be done?

Motivating through non-monetary recognition

Non-monetary recognition motivates employees more than money does! Can your managers afford the luxury of not mastering all the subtleties specific to non-monetary recognition?

Managing means getting things done…

Any manager will be evaluated on the quality of the work done by his/her subordinates. Does your group have the skills needed to ensure leadership, motivation and results?

Retaining good employees

According to a recent survey in Quebec, the element that incites people to change employers even more than better remuneration is a better working environment. How is this happening in your organization?

Managing time and priorities

There are time management and effective delegating principles that help you manage your time better and reduce stress. You will feel less torn between the tasks you have to do yourself and those that require the management of your team.

Knowing how to influence people

It's not enough to have good ideas. You have to be able to convince others! Getting your ideas across means not only being able to present them and express them in a clear manner that is adapted for potential listeners, but also managing the environment and the circumstances that are essential to the birth of the idea or project.

Managing your work unit and delegating effectively

How much discretionary time do you really have? You have to go hunting for time! How much time is your work unit eating up right now?

Managing stress

Being happy to be more efficient and more efficient to be happier. We can reduce our stress by taking charge of satisfying our needs for commitment by greater motivation at work.

Knowing how to express your expectations

Any road is the right one if you don't know where you're going!

Why should you specify your expectations? Because 60% to 80% of performance problems are caused by a misunderstanding of expectations. Clarifying your expectations and using your management style better within the framework of the values specific to the company is essential.

Causing and managing change effectively

Machiavel said it: “One should bear in mind that there is nothing more difficult to execute, nor more dubious of success, nor more dangerous to administer than to introduce a new system of things: for he who introduces it has all those who profit from the old system as his enemies, and he has only lukewarm allies in all those who might profit from the new system.”

Communication

"Management knows and the subordinates follow more or less blindly."

This manner of management, which is based on an elaborate, rigid structure – well tested processes, clear procedures, unquestionable expertise – may be completely inadequate in an environment subject to constant change. In this context, the commitment and empowerment of the human resources is essential. For this, the employees must have all of the information they need to perform in an optimal manner. And the organization must rely on an essential tool: COMMUNICATION.

Unproductive meetings

Are you looking for a tested tool for destroying the motivation of your employees and an effective means for getting rid of your best elements? There's no doubt about it: unproductive meetings never fail!
