We now return our reasons based on the topics themselves for our 6th reason to attend. You will remember leadership I rated such an important issue for us, not only in business but in life, so that for that reason alone the conference (http://www.astoundingleadershipinsights.com/) was worth attending. But there is also another prominent topic thatContinue reading “9 Reasons to Attend the Leadership Showcase #6”

Revenue Model for Coaches and Consultants
To be successful as a coach or consultant (or indeed as a trainer) in today’s competitive market is a tall order; the reality is there is so much competition, and so many ‘me-too’ coaches and consultants out there. The net effect of all the down-sizing, delayering, and simply the ‘I’ve had it with corporate life-itis’, means there are seemingly millions of coaches and consultants everywhere.

Not really, there is a fundamental difference in thinking between the two levels and they are correlatedContinue reading “Becoming a Business Practitioner of Motivational Maps”
Motivation, teams and Woolworths
Back in December 2008 I remember walking down from Glastonbury Tor into the main town with my wife. We had taken a short break in Glastonbury and were enjoying ourselves. As we came into the main town I spotted a Woolworths store on the right side of the road and crossed to have a look;Continue reading “Motivation, teams and Woolworths”
Why motivation is NOT often in the work place
It is not an original observation to say that in most work places we look we find that most people are not highly motivated. In many cases they are not motivated at all. They need to work and their commitment to and engagement with their employer extends no further than the next pay cheque. ThisContinue reading “Why motivation is NOT often in the work place”
