The Nine Minutes on Monday Program for Managers and Supervisors.

Begins September 19th, 2024.

Everything has changed

The success of your organization hinges on the ability of your managers to engage and motivate their staff.

But when your front-line managers get sucked into the weeds they end up task-focused and simply going through the motions. This erodes the motivation and engagement of your teams.

Nine Minutes on Monday gives your managers a roadmap to inspire their staff by tapping into the Engagement Drivers.

What is Nine Minutes on Monday?

Nine Minutes on Monday is a simple framework that helps managers tap into nine powerful drivers of engagement. These drivers are actually key needs that when met, lead to engaged employees.

In order to create a high-performance work environment you must tap into these nine needs. When you do its like flipping on a switch of motivation inside each of your staff.

In this program, your managers will learn how to practically tap into these needs with simple and practical techniques that don’t take a lot of time.
