Motivation to Lead, Motivation to Follow
March 12, 2009 (2:30 pm - 4:30 pm)
Dr. Craig Wallace
Executives, managers, and individual employees frequently use the term ‘leadership’ in the business world, yet few can accurately define leadership and its role in employee motivation and performance. Groundbreaking research suggests that in addition to person-organization fit, employers and leaders should also try to accurately match what drives organizational leaders with what drives employees. This program will advise business owners, executives, and managers how to connect their motivation to lead with their employee’s motivation to follow in order to obtain the most effective performance.
