EDU1373 Motivating Others

Motivation is a means of giving a person a reason to act.  There are many ways to motivate others.  This course will look at an assortment of techniques and verify which ones are optimum.  Stimulating others to function at their personal best is an objective a leader has.  Some approaches can actually demotivate, so we want to know how to use the tools in the best possible way for the most optimum outcome.

Students will profit by learning how to inspire each individual.  You will learn diverse methods to use and how to combine them for the individual.  Becoming a good listener and observer is crucial to be a good motivator, so we will hone those skills as well. You will need good communication skills in order to motivate others, therefore this course will address that subject as well.  It is of utmost importance to the people receiving direction from you that the direction is clear, and the expectations are outlined specifically.  This course will assist you to develop those techniques.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

This course gives students frameworks and tools for recognition of what motivates people.  Establishing an incentive system that can prompt your targeted audience to further the aim of the organization will be investigated.  Goal setting is a good way to motivate others, however there is a risk of making the goals too specific and challenging.  We will learn what makes an effective goal.  You will learn the fundamental needs that drive human behavior.  By the end of this course, all students should:
