Developing trust is important for leadership and requires integrity, competence, consistency, loyalty, openness and risk taking. Cultural differences must also be considered in global leadership.
This document discusses how to manage oneself by focusing on one's strengths, performance, values, and how to contribute. It recommends discovering your strengths through feedback analysis and improving your first-rate performance. It also stresses performing in ways that are unique to you, and not trying to change how you perform but getting better at what you are good at. Additionally, it discusses having values that are compatible with your organization and doing work that fits your value system. The document advises learning to say no when an opportunity does not align with where you belong, and contributing based on your strengths, values, and performance style in a way that stretches without breaking you.
Good looks provide many advantages in life. Attractive people receive preferential treatment from a young age which helps develop their confidence and social skills. They have more career opportunities and earn higher salaries. While beauty is subjective, research shows attractive people are perceived as more capable and having positive personality traits. However, good looks do not guarantee happiness and can lead to disadvantages like unfounded rumors, jealousy, and an inability to be taken seriously in certain roles. True attractiveness comes from developing inner qualities like health, character, intelligence and spirituality.
This presentation describes how to use strengths, reframing, and re-labeling in order to find more constructive explanations for things that happen to you and your response to them.

This document contains information about success curves of organizations over time, learning curves of successful organizations, hurdles to motivation such as external environment, ego state, understanding of self, and perception of others. It also discusses locus of control as either internal or external, shifting from external to internal expectations, myths about the self, and ways to improve the self through changing self-talk, setting goals, and practicing kindness.
Motivation is the internal process leading to behavior to satisfy needs. Performance is determined by the formula: Performance = Ability x Motivation x Resources. There are several theories of motivation including: content theories like Maslow's hierarchy of needs and ERG theory that focus on identifying people's needs; process theories like expectancy theory that examine how motivation works; and reinforcement theories based on positive and negative consequences influencing behavior. Effective motivation techniques include setting objectives, job enrichment, praise, and management by objectives. Cross-cultural differences also impact motivation.
This document discusses how class affects people's behaviors and thinking in the workplace. It defines different social classes from generational poverty to old money. Key points include: how class shapes priorities around survival, relationships and work; how lack of resources like role models and knowledge of hidden rules impact the poor; and unspoken rules that judge people's belonging in the workplace based on what they do, know, and who they know. The document suggests the poor may struggle with cause-and-effect reasoning, emotional intelligence, and knowing appropriate language and behavior for different situations.
Leadership focuses on motivating others and developing skills like cooperation, listening, and putting others' needs first to achieve goals, while management is about discipline and execution. There are different types of leadership including situational, transitional, and hierarchical. Situational leadership involves assuming responsibility and making decisions appropriate to the time and circumstances. Transitional leadership occurs when the right leader is not available due to lack of ability or willingness to take risks. The key differences between managers and leaders are that managers focus on procedures and the short-term while leaders envision the future and orient towards long-term goals.
The document provides information on four personality types: Driver, Influencer, Steady, and Compliance based on the DiSC model. It summarizes the key characteristics, motivations, fears, ideal work environments, strengths, and areas for growth for each type. It also provides tips on how to effectively interact and communicate with each type. The personality types are assessed based on how a person prioritizes tasks vs people and prefers to handle change/conflict vs stability/harmony.
This document provides an overview of leading change and the role of leadership. It discusses how people react emotionally to change and outlines a response cycle. It also explores situational leadership and how the leader must adapt their style based on follower readiness. Key points of leading change include effective communication, understanding the situation and people, and using creativity and innovation to drive improvement.

This document discusses various techniques for motivating employees, including setting specific and measurable goals, providing regular feedback and rewards for good performance, giving employees autonomy and responsibility, showing appreciation, and ensuring work is meaningful and provides opportunities for growth. It emphasizes that different employees have different needs and motivations, so managers should understand individual employees and provide an environment where they can succeed and feel valued. Punishment is discouraged as a demotivating approach that does not encourage better performance.
Intrinsic motivation refers to doing something for its own sake rather than for some separable consequence. It is driven by an interest or enjoyment in the task itself, and exists within the individual rather than relying on external pressures or a desire for reward. Active listening is a communication technique used to improve mutual understanding and show empathy for the speaker. It involves fully concentrating on what is being said without distraction, accepting the person and their perspective without judgment, and reflecting back their feelings and ideas without inserting one's own views. These behaviors demonstrate trust, care, and support for the speaker.
This document discusses the concepts of strength, talent, knowledge, and skill. It defines strength as a consistent near-perfect performance in an activity. Talent refers to recurring patterns of thought, feeling, or behavior that can be productively applied. Knowledge includes factual knowledge that can be taught, as well as experiential knowledge gained through experience. Skill refers to capabilities that can be transferred between people and developed through practice. The document emphasizes that to excel, one must maximize their strengths rather than focus on fixing weaknesses.
Motivation is driven by internal needs and desires that create tension pushing individuals towards goals. It is a continuous process with stages of need recognition, tension, drive or want, action, and outcome that results in either tension reduction through goal fulfillment or persistence. Motivation can be intrinsic from internal enjoyment or extrinsic from external rewards and is important in education for energizing learning, directing behavior towards goals, and developing interests and skills. Teachers can improve student motivation through methods like control, clear objectives, praise, and varied engaging activities.
Motivation is an inferred process that causes an organism to move towards a goal. Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs identifies physiological, safety, belongingness, esteem, and self-actualization as five levels of human needs. Motivation comes from fulfilling lower level needs and moving up the hierarchy. Effective motivation techniques appeal to benefits, emotions, needs/wants, expertise, and include finding new skills, developing feedback, and rotating work. Goal setting should involve specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound goals that are regularly reviewed and analyzed to improve progress toward success.
The document discusses motivation, defining it as factors that energize human and animal behavior. It describes positive and negative motivation, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, and several theories of motivation including expectancy theory, drive reduction theory, Maslow's hierarchy of needs, goal setting theory, and McClelland's theory of needs. Key motivators are achievement, power, and affiliation. Demotivating factors and benefits of motivation are also outlined.
The document discusses the importance of nurturing different areas of life including the physical, intellectual, emotional, spiritual, and financial. It emphasizes that success is measured not by how high one rises, but by how they bounce back from failures. Critical success factors include having a positive attitude, strong communication skills, self-confidence, and being a team player. Only 10% of an individual is visible to others, while 90% relating to their attitudes, values, and beliefs lies below the surface. Building a positive attitude involves changing one's focus, continuous learning, developing gratitude, and strengthening self-esteem while avoiding negative influences. The key message is that our choices shape how we react to situations and live our lives.

This document discusses motivation and related concepts. It defines motivation as the psychological processes that cause arousal, direction, and persistence of voluntary actions toward a goal. Key elements of motivation include intensity, direction, and persistence of effort. Motivation theories examined include:
1. Maslow's hierarchy of needs and Alderfer's ERG theory, which discuss factors that motivate based on fulfilling physiological, safety, belongingness, esteem, and self-actualization needs.
2. Herzberg's two-factor theory distinguishes between motivators like achievement that create job satisfaction and hygiene factors like salary that prevent dissatisfaction.
3. Expectancy theory proposes that motivation depends on expectations of effort leading to performance
Changing human behavior and motivational interviewing Mohamed Thabet
This document discusses techniques for changing human behavior and motivation. It introduces the "Wheel of Change" model, which outlines stages of behavior change: pre-contemplation, contemplation, decision/preparation, action, and maintenance.
In the contemplation stage, techniques like a profit-loss account and timeline can help people weigh the advantages and disadvantages of a new behavior versus their old one. In the decision stage, demonstrating real cases and providing a suitable environment and motivation can help people take action.
Motivation comes from internal drives and goals. Motivational interviewing aims to draw on a person's existing motivation rather than imposing motivation from outside. Relapse is common, so maintenance plans are important, and
The document discusses motivation and demotivation in the workplace. It defines motivation and explains that it produces goal-oriented behavior and determines effort levels. Motivation can be intrinsic, coming from within, or extrinsic, involving rewards and punishments. People become demotivated due to factors like unrealistic workloads, conflicts with colleagues, and a lack of vision or fair treatment. Motivation can be improved by setting clear goals, encouraging employee input, acknowledging achievements, and creating a supportive work environment.
Leadership is, most fundamentally, about changes. What leaders do is create the systems and organizations that managers need, and, eventually, elevate them up to a whole new level or . . . change in some basic ways to take advantage of new opportunities.
—John P. Kotter
Leadership is about influence—the ability to influence your subordinates, your peers, and your bosses in a work or organizational context. Without influence, it is impossible to be a leader. Of course, having influence means that there is a greater need on the part of leaders to exercise their influence ethically.
Leadership operates in groups. This means that leadership is about influencing a group of people who are engaged in a common goal or purpose.
Leadership includes the achievement of goals. Therefore, leadership is about directing a group of people toward the accomplishment of a task or the reaching of an endpoint through various ethically based means. Leaders direct their energies and the energies of their followers to the achievement of something together. Thus, leadership occurs in, as well as affects, contexts where people are moving in the direction of a goal.
Leaders and followers share objectives. Leadership means that leaders work with their followers to achieve objectives that they all share. Establishing shared objectives that leaders and followers can coalesce around is difficult but worth the effort. Leaders who are willing to expend time and effort in determining appropriate goals will find these goals achieved more effectively and easily if followers and leaders work together. Leader-imposed goals are generally harder and less effectively achieved than goals developed together.
This document summarizes key ideas from behavioral economics, positive psychology, and human achievement. It discusses how optimism, positivity, intrinsic motivation, and growth mindset can lead to happiness and success. Flow states from deliberate practice are also important. Behavioral economics shows humans are predictably irrational, using heuristics and framing. Understanding these principles can help people improve health, happiness, and productivity. The science of being human is an emerging field that provides evidence-based ways to enhance well-being.
The document discusses various cognitive biases and heuristics that influence perception and decision making. It explains attribution theory, which suggests that people attempt to determine whether behaviors are internally or externally caused. Some common biases discussed are the fundamental attribution error, self-serving bias, selective perception, halo effect, and stereotyping. The rational model of decision making assumes people have complete information and choose the optimal option, but in reality people use bounded rationality and satisfice. Intuition also influences decisions. The document outlines several biases that impair decision making, like anchoring bias and availability bias, and provides some strategies for reducing biases and more ethical decision making.
This document discusses various theories of motivation, including:
1. Intrinsic vs extrinsic motivation, where intrinsic motivation refers to doing an activity for its own enjoyment rather than external rewards, while extrinsic motivation is doing something for a separable outcome.
2. Maslow's hierarchy of needs which argues people are motivated to meet physiological, safety, social, esteem, and self-actualization needs.
3. Herzberg's two-factor theory which finds factors like achievement and recognition motivate employees while hygiene factors like salary only prevent dissatisfaction.
4. Expectancy theory which proposes motivation depends on the link between effort and performance, performance and rewards, and the attractiveness of those
Motivation is what causes an individual to move towards a goal. Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs explains that individuals are motivated to fulfill basic physiological needs like hunger and thirst before progressing to higher level needs. Self-motivation involves breaking large tasks into small steps and taking action without waiting for inspiration. Effective motivational strategies include finding new skills, getting feedback, expanding abilities, and rotating work assignments. Goal setting is important for motivation, with goals needing to be specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-oriented. Short-term goals can be achieved quickly while long-term goals take more time to accomplish.
This document discusses coaching employees to improve performance. It begins by listing common reasons why employees may not do what managers want, such as not knowing what to do or how to do it. It then discusses how coaching focuses on future possibilities rather than past mistakes. The manager's role is to support the employee in achieving possibilities so both can succeed. It provides tips for analyzing performance issues, having discussions with employees, providing feedback, and addressing how feedback may be received poorly or defended against. The document emphasizes reinforcing positive behavior and describing issues factually to collaboratively set improvement plans.
