The “Introduction to Inspired Management” Workshop 

Due to unprecedented demand this workshop is now full.  We are planning another one in the autumn, so if you would like to go onto the waiting list please contact Amanda.Faramus@InspiredWorking.com

Is your team delivering 100% productivity? Research shows that it can be as low as 39% for many people.  What are you doing about it?

“In just 6 hours you will have the proven formula for driving productivity and profits through your people” 

You will get a robust and comprehensive, step-by-step, easy to follow system, guaranteed to work . . . or your money back!

Let's face it, managing people is tough! 

If you've tried it, you know that getting people to do exactly what you want in the way you want it can be a bit of a challenge.  

Maybe you are looking for ways to motivate them or getting them to be more accountable.  

Or perhaps you just want them to do their job properly.

Do any of the following sound at all familiar? 

• 'If you want something done, do it yourself'
• 'They just don’t put in the required effort'
• 'They are always making the same mistakes'
• 'They don’t communicate'
• 'If they would only be more accountable'
• 'They say ‘yes’ but don’t deliver'

These situations are usually caused by one of the 7 Performance Traps

Even with the best will in the world, many managers get frustrated by the lack of motivation and accountability in their people.  

An international cultural change consultancy recently revealed that the average level of employee engagement in the UK is 39%. This means that 61% of UK employees are arriving at work each morning feeling somewhere between indifference and serious disengagement or even antagonistic to their working environment.

There are 7 performance traps in your business and when they are removed you will dramatically improve the performance of your people, your team and your business.

Despite the challenges involved in managing people, you stand to gain massive benefits by implementing a simple, clear and robust framework that will provide a dynamic and yet flexible structure for communicating what you require and help your people to contribute to the success of your business.

There are several secret advantages of learning the fundamentals of inspired management that not only make your life easier, but also build your confidence and ensure that you work more on your business than merely in it.  That means you can focus on the results that really make a difference and you can leverage your time and effort to achieve what you really want.

All people are unique and need to be treated in a way that addresses their needs and what works for them.  But there are some fundamental principles that can be applied with all people in all businesses.

Without a clear framework for leading, managing and developing your people you may well be squandering talent, tolerating poor performance and missing opportunities to motivate them.  

It’s all about removing the 7 Performance Traps.

Proven results

Many businesses are now implementing our unique yet simple formula for improving performance and they are getting a fantastic return on investment.

For example:

• Polyteck Building Services increased turnover from £3M to £5M in 18 months
• Managers at Acorn Maintenance Engineering were able to handle 60-100% more business volume
• Directors, Managers and Staff at The Big Choice Group achieved a 30% increase in productivity
• SMP increased turnover from £19M to £25M and doubled their net profit margins in 18 months

The above results were achieved because the Directors and Managers implemented our robust system and were able to focus on the development of the business, rather than day to day fire fighting.

If you would like to become even more effective, as well as learning the fundamental principles that will transform your management style then join us in Central London on 28th July.

Master the fundamentals of ‘Inspired Management’

Management is about getting results through others.

Inspired Management is about helping people to be the best they can be; once you have implemented what you will learn on this workshop your people will be clear about what is expected of them, they’ll be motivated to achieve the required results, not only for you but for themselves, and they will participate and contribute more to the success of your business.

Inspired Management is not just about following a set of rules; it is an approach that is built on solid foundations, using a set of principles that enable you to develop your own natural style and achieve the results that are most important to you.

Inspired Management works on many levels; it is about understanding people and using the latest neuroscience research into brain function.  This means you will learn how it can be applied to communicating and implementing business strategy in a meaningful way, providing highly effective feedback and delegating in a way that guarantees success.

Inspired Management is about win-win:

• Communicating the basics.
• Clarifying expectations and setting priorities.
• Raising awareness and accountability.
• Recognising contribution and rewarding achievement.
• Being relentless in communication

If you can implement and master a few simple, yet powerful, processes and learn to think like an inspired manager, you will be able to lead, manage and develop your people to new levels of performance, motivation and results.

When people are in your team, they will feel good about themselves because you can inspire them and help them grow.

This mastery can be yours

Mastering the fundamentals of inspired management involves getting to grips with the absolute basics of management.  This includes setting clear direction, clarifying expectations, providing constructive feedback and transferring responsibility in a way that people are eager to accept.

In order to achieve our vision of providing:

“A broad range of insightful and accessible learning activities that are carefully designed to suit every budget and every learning style, so people can acquire new knowledge, skills and behaviours at a pace that matches their motivation” 

We are inviting you to join us so that we can create a video record of the workshop.  This will in turn be made into a multimedia learning programme.

On this single occasion we are offering it exclusively to you at a much reduced price so that we can video it for a self-study product and as a component of our resource pack for associates and partners. 

This means that we are prepared to offer it to you at the significantly reduced price of just £97 + VAT (£116.40)
