  • Managing Performance and Motivation
    Did you know that motivating people is like building a jigsaw puzzle?  If one piece is missing the whole does not work.  In this session, you will learn an integrative model of performance management that incorporates best practices in motivating high performance and will apply this knowledge to your work environment.
