Recognizing and Removing Barriers to Performance

Great managers can read people. They know that employees have different skills, different concerns, and different levels of motivation. Further, they know that if they ignore these diverse needs, there is a greater chance that their employees will waste their energy moving in the wrong direction, get frustrated with a lack of success, or just disengage from a project or a team.

This course is designed to help managers recognize the employee’s needs and remove the barriers that hinder performance.

The major learning objectives of this workshop are:

  • Read the DiSC style and developmental needs of different employees
  • Understand the goals and fears of their employees
  • Adapt their management approach to match the ability level and motivation of their employees
  • Recognize and reduce their employees opposition and resistance
  • Develop employees that are more energized, efficient and committed
