How to Crush an Employee’s Spirit and I mean Squash that Sucker like a Bug

Jim Collins teaches us a whole bunch of goodness on how employers are crushing the spirits and ruing the motivation of their employees with the Big Idea at the Big Think blog at http://bigthink.com/ideas/40844 as part of an ongoing series related to the Mind of an Employee.

Employees aren’t children (by law in the United States, at least) but unsuccessful parents and bosses have one thing in common: they are expert demotivators. Skillful leadership is always a matter of nudging people in positive directions while respecting their ideas and autonomy – of empowering them to do what they’re good at in the service of something bigger than themselves. And for parents and CEOs alike, there’s a lot to be learned from that ancient teaching tool, the cautionary tale.

Jim Collins, New York Times bestselling author of Good to Great and (with coauthor Morten T. Hansen) Great by Choice, sees a lot of cautionary tales in his line of work. A former teacher at the Stanford Graduate School of business, Collins now runs a “management laboratory” in Boulder, Colorado where he conducts research into what gets and keeps companies significantly ahead of (or behind) the competition. Collins has closely scrutinized the management practices of hundreds of businesses and served as an advisor to CEOs nationwide. The best leaders, he says, don’t worry about motivating people – they hire passionate employees and don’t extinguish their passion.

Obviously, this material is based upon just one of many forms that social psychology or social influence can take. Once we understand the principles behind influence of this type, we can begin to apply those principles in a variety of contexts. We become more effective at changing behaviors and in creating desirable outcomes . . . socially, in business, and within any other context you can imagine.

This year, participants in the WALKABOUT TRANCE THREE will take this sort of knowledge and learn to put it to actual immediate and effective use by going out into the public and applying the principles in fun and engaging real world practicum experiments with members of the public as we explore walkabout style waking street hypnosis and social influence and more. Participants will not only be learning cutting edge techniques in delivering weaking hypnotic suggestions to members of the public, they will learn the core principles and more of authentic social influence with practical exercises out and about walkabout trance style to engage and influence members of the public that develop their skills and take their ability to effectively influence others to the next level and beyond.

Learn the theory . . . learn the talk . . . and . . . most importantly . . . learn to walk the walk and become the sort of influential person you wish to be!
