Course Summary
As businesses develop, many forward-thinking business owners are beginning to realise that giving orders to employees isn’t the most effective or productive way of getting the job done. Actually, research shows that employees are more motivated, and therefore, do much more work, if they are given the freedom to make their own choices and develop down a path that they enjoy.
Giving your employees the responsibility to make changes in the workplace and assess risk areas to make improvements, empowers them to make projects their own - something to be proud of.
This empowerment can begin with small steps. Perhaps whether they would like to work in the office or at home, or setting their own shift patterns based on what works for them? Then moving over to project management and KPI monitoring.
Evidence suggests that employees who are given this autonomy to work will put much more effort into their role, begin to train other employees, and naturally delegate work which will ensure the continuous improvement and development of your departments based on their experience. This benefits you as a company, as you gain hard-working employees, and also allows your employees to put their skills to the test and gain more experience to aid their progression.
- To develop an understanding of how delegation can increase motivation.
- To empower employees to make their own decisions.
- To pass along the training responsibilities to those who do the role already.
- To develop the mentoring skills in your departments so that the experience filters through.
- To increase the coaching culture in your workplace and teach more motivational coaching techniques.
- To allow your employees to explore and develop their own skills.
- To understand the changing development culture and use it to continuously improve your business using the people in your front-line roles.
