Treat your Colleagues like Animals!
By Suzanne Evans
What in the world does the training of killer whales have to do with motivating, developing and managing people?
More than you think! A new training course suggests that both whales and humans perform better when you accentuate the positive, revealing that using the techniques of animal trainers-specifically those responsible for the killer whales of SeaWorld-can supercharge your effectiveness at work and at home.
Whale Done! is an interactive one and a half day workshop based on the best selling book of the same name by Ken Blanchard, et al. The course is available in the UK from June and works on the principle that people, like performing killer whales, need to be recognised and appreciated for their work, because if they're not, they won't perform well for their bosses. By catching people doing things right and redirecting negative behaviour, productivity and trust is increased, and high commitment and motivation results. You retain your best workers, promote positive customer relationships and sustain your competitive advantage. The course also helps decrease workplace stress - one of the most pressing 21st century organisational problems.
