thats a huge mistake. Why? The reality is that theres a long road ahead
if they want to gain a client for life, from implementation and follow-up

Overview
Whether you are working with fresh faces or seasoned pros, there are

from time to time, establish a baseline, and always have an action plan
for improvement.

WOULD I FOLLOW ME
Overview
How a leader leads and is perceived to lead is crucial to the productivity
of a group. This dramatised video-based training programme, illustrates
the importance of leaders recognising and putting into practice
behaviours that inspire people, rather than alienate them.
The video demonstrates one leaders behaviour and the results in two
different situations - first as a newly appointed leader, and then five years
later after he has learned a few lessons about leadership. We see him
move back and forth between the two time periods, making unintended
mistakes in the first situation and then successfully correcting them in
the second. As he shares the leadership lessons he has learned, learners
will recognise some of their own misguided behaviours and the negative
effects it can have. They will also recognise the very positive effects of
good leadership practices on staff motivation and productivity.
WOULD I INSPIRE ME
Overview
What does it take to inspire a work group to greater commitment
and productivity? Its not charisma. Rather, its behaviour that any well-
intentioned leader can emulate, as this program demonstrates.
The Would I Inspire Me? video program gives viewers practical ways
to make work life more meaningful, productive, and rewarding for
themselves and their team.

How can you get more of what you want?

since we get more of what we focus on, what really happens? We create
more of what we dont want and dont even realize were doing it.
