I’ve Been Dissed & Now I’m Pissed: 
Design Your Organization to
Invite (not sabotage) Motivation!

Gallup tells us that half of our working people are not engaged. And that 17% are dissed and/or pissed!

How do we make that better?

The Six Factor Model to Invite Motivation addresses:
Nurturing the Individual by providing Purpose, Mastery, & Autonomy
and Setting the Context by Deliberately Designing the Organization,
the Peers, the Leaders, the Place, & the Work.

Join us on this hot August night and bring your observations and insights to our discussion about the omnipresent issue of motivation in our world of organizing.
