Enhancing motivation drivers for achieving goals

Why a course on motivation?

Let me ask you a few questions:

• What motivates people?
• Why do we do one thing rather than another?
• Is money the most appealing motivation driver?
• What relationship is there between needs and motivation?
• What tools should we use to increase motivation?
• Is it possible to motivate people?
• This e-learning course is designed to answer these questions, focusing on the drivers of motivation: the ones the organisation can use to ensure that people act consistently with the goals of the organisation itself

Aims

To help participants understand the value and the structure of motivation, and encourage its enhancement to achieve the goals of the organisation.

Who should take this course?

Anyone responsible for managing people, you may say: and that’s true.
Nevertheless, we need to remember that activities and processes make us strongly dependent on people’s motivation: colleagues who are motivated in their work will surely help you do your job better, too.
From this perspective,  this course is interesting for managers, human resources people who are involved in the performance management process, as well as for anyone in roles requiring interaction with a considerable number of people.
In other words, motivation plays a crucial role in one’s personal and professional life.
