Eighty-plus years of research has proven that humans CRAVE three things that enable them to become more motivated: RESPECT: Help me feel respected for the work I do. PURPOSE: Show me how what I do has purpose, makes a difference, and is relevant to the organization. RELATIONSHIP: Help me build stronger connections with people, especially my immediate manager/supervisor. In this highly interactive keynote, the audience is introduced to the power of strategically recognizing employees as a way to reduce stress and fuel the work environment with what employees CRAVE. Using real-life case studies with financial impact and highlighting compelling realities managers can relate to, Gregg ensures that audiences will walk away with valuable leadership techniques and feel inspired to put them into practice. Gregg says, “We, as humans, love recognition, but we struggle to give enough of it. Whether we want to admit it or not, recognition plays a huge role in our everyday work lives — in our happiness, well-being, and working relationships. Learning to strategically recognize employees is the most effective and efficient way to give people what they CRAVE. Doing so leads to accelerated improvements in employee engagement and in the work culture, which together inspire a more consistent customer experience." In this learning experience, supervisors, managers, and executives will commit to the 10 Minutes by Friday habit for giving people more of what they CRAVE! In return, they will become better managers and leaders who are able to achieve the business results that matter most to their teams, departments, and companies.
