How to M otivate
Unmotivated Employees
Dear
Manager,
I’ll
bet you’ve got at least one employee who’s turned slacking off into
an art form -- one who comes in late, watches the clock, “forgets”
what he or she was asked to do, complains, blames others and
generally makes your life miserable.
What’s
worse, you probably got blindsided by the whole thing. The employee
looked great during the interview, then went straight downhill as
soon as the paycheck started coming.
Or, maybe, they strung you
along for a while, working their butts off and making you feel
brilliant for hiring them. But then they simply fizzled out.
You’ve
tried everything you can think of to get them moving but nothing has
worked.
Now you’re faced with the prospect of either replacing them
(not always easy) or watching them slouch through the day while you
grind your teeth in frustration.
It’s
just not fair – not to you and certainly not to whoever signs the
paychecks. Because, no matter what your “sloth” gets paid, he or she
is the most expensive hire in the house.
Everyone else EARNS their paycheck.
The organization gets
real value in return for their salaries.
But your unmotivated,
unproductive employee costs your organization a ton, because the
folks who write the paychecks might as well be throwing his or her
salary out the window.
And
that’s not all. In addition to soaking up a salary he or she doesn’t
deserve, your problem employee also
-
drags down other employees’
performance – not to mention their morale, and
-
makes YOU less valuable because when
the rest of your employees see you letting the slacker get away
with it, they lose respect for you.
You can’t afford to sit back and do nothing.
(Heck, that’s exactly what your problem employee is doing.) But with
all the things you have on your plate, you need a strategy that will
not only work – it will solve the problem for once and for all.
That's why I created
“How to
Motivate Unmotivated Employees” .
“Slashed our
annual turnover rate by 99%!”
“Prior to this seminar, we terminated 150
employees in
one year for absenteeism. Since attending
Glenn’s seminar,
we’ve only had to terminate three employees in
the last
three years. Glenn’s methods WORK!”

Discover Strategies that Work
People have been trying to figure out what motivates
other people pretty much forever -- certainly since the first
caveman figured out he could bring down a mammoth a whole lot easier
if he had a few willing buddies with him.
So there’s a ton of ideas about motivation out there.
(Check out your local bookstore and you’ll find shelf after shelf
devoted to the topic.) Unfortunately, most of these ideas run the
gamut from dead obvious to downright wrong.
Some, though, are smart, timeless and consistently
effective -- and those are the ideas I’ve pulled together for this
presentation.
You see, I’ve been a manager for over two decades (in
addition to coaching, lecturing and writing several best selling
books on dealing with employees.) I know what you’re going
through and what you need.
So I’ve made it my
business to track down the best insights into WHY some people are so
difficult to motivate and WHAT you can do to turn them
around, get them producing and make everyone a whole lot happier.
For example, we’ll discuss:
-
The single most powerful motivator known to man –
and the simple reason why most of the time it’s better NOT to
use it
-
What employees of Southwest Airlines,
Harley-Davidson and the construction companies that repaired the
Pentagon after 9-11 have in common – and how it’s made them some
of the most productive workers in the history of the world.
-
How a researcher broke GE’s heart -- but discovered
a strategy so potent it’s been boosting productivity since 1924.
-
What you can learn from those street corner kids
with the nose rings and funny clothes. It’s not cheerful – but
it will go a long way to helping you understand why at least
some of your problem employees just don’t seem to “get” it.
-
Why some of your least motivated employees come from
the best, most “child centered” homes – and what you can do to
undo the damage their well-intentioned parents did.
-
The one totally wrong thing we all believe about
ourselves -- and why you absolutely have to get around it if
you’re going to get people to change.
“Turnover rate 60%
below national average”
“In an industry where 125% turnover of managers
is average
and 200% turnover of hourly employees is
considered excellent,
for the past three years our turnover rate has
been 185% for
hourly and 50% for managers, thanks to Glenn .”

Get ‘em Going
When we finish the first part of
“How to
Motivate Unmotivated Employees”,
you’ll know a whole lot more about the art and science of motivation.
But your problem employee will still be filing her nails or texting
his friends or playing solitaire on the computer. ANYTHING but
working!
So the next part is going to teach you EXACTLY how to
sneak up on your sloth and light a very hot fire
directly under him.
You’ll learn:
-
Six “magic” questions -- and how to use them
to undermine employees’ resistance and get them ready to move.
-
Why you need their buy-in – and where you
have to go to get it.
-
How to tap into your employee’s own
imagination – and use it to totally reorient his
or her perspective.
-
Best of all, how to start the actual change process so
stealthily your unproductive employees won’t know what
hit them.
“A new company
record – 13 months without
anyone quitting or
getting fired!”
“I manage 30 employees and have been using
Glenn's
material for two years now. I'm proud to say that
the
last two years have been the best of my career!
We actually made it 13 consecutive months without
terminating or having anyone quit, which is a
record.”

Keep ‘em Moving
Once you get your sloth lumbering along and actually
thinking about improving, you need keep him going in the right
direction.
The progress won’t continue by itself.
(Remember, your unproductive employee may never have done an honest
day’s work in his life.)
So, in the next part of
“How to
Motivate Unmotivated Employees”,
we’ll discuss what you can do to keep your employee moving,
including:
-
The only kind of goals your employee will be able to meet –
and how to set them so effectively you give him the boost he
needs to succeed.
-
Why your most productive employee is the one who’s about to go
on vacation – and how to use this insight to get your sloth to
work a whole lot faster.
-
Why spending your most precious resource on your unproductive
employee will pay real dividends – but hoarding it will stop
progress in its tracks.
Don’t Get in Their Way
Finally, we’re going to take a look at you – because
even good managers sometimes do things that keep problem employees
(and average ones, too) from being all they can be.
So I’ll put YOUR
feet to the fire as we look at a bunch of common “sins” managers
commit, and what to do about them, including:
-
The one situation in which no amount of motivation,
communication, praise or punishment will get your employee
performing well – and why identifying it quickly will save both
time and heartache.
-
Why managing everyone the same way is recipe for failure – and
what your employees’ ages can tell you about the best way to
coax great performance out of them.
-
The right time to talk to employees – and why missing the
moment can make it impossible to lead.
-
The most common mistake managers make – and how it can ruin
perfectly good employees as quickly as it spoils kids.
-
Why employees sometimes actually sabotage their own progress –
and what you can do to keep them from being their own worst
enemies.
-
What a rocking horse can tell you about productivity – and how
this valuable lesson will let you spot who’s really earning
their paycheck.

Boost the Performance of ALL your Employees

Not Just the Slackers
Of course, that’s just the tip of the iceberg.
We’ll also explore
things like why negative motivators, by themselves, simply can’t
lead to meaningful change, how true self esteem (as opposed to
constant praise) plays a big role in getting people to be
productive, and why your mother was right – your friends and
colleagues really do have an effect on you.
Plus, I’ll explain the
difference between encouragement and motivation, and tell you why
I’m so convinced that ANYONE can be transformed into a responsible
employee – IF you’re willing to make the effort.

even your least motivated employees going, AND turn your average
employees into an above-average team.

have allowed them to boost productivity, handle difficult employees,
impress their bosses and increase their income, status and

strategies I’ll lay out for you – simply, clearly and with YOUR
