Ask staff members what makes them unhappy at work, and you will hear about low salary, apathetic students and parents, and possibly an unskilled supervisor. Did you know that most people leave their bosses not their jobs? Managed badly, some factors make people miserable. But even if they are managed wonderfully, it doesn’t make anyone work much harder or smarter. Staff members are motivated, instead, by interesting work, challenge and increased responsibility. These intrinsic factors answer people’s deep- seated need for growth and achievement. Participants will walk away from this session with very doable actions and resources that help to create meaning in their staff’s day-today work.
