Employee Recognition: What’s Effective?
April 1, 2009 · Leave a Comment
One of my all-time favorite keynote speakers is Chester Elton. He speaks about employee recognition, incentive programs, and team motivation. Essentially one of the most important topics a company faces today, because as groups slim down, it’s important to keep morale up in a way that will buoy productivity effectively.
Not only is the content of Chester Elton’s presentations fantastic, he’s got an ease and humor in front of an audience that’s really engaging. He’s known as the Carrots Guy (check out his book here) and he and co-author Adrian Gostick are available for keynote presentations as well as training workshops.
We’ve posted a great video excerpt with some interesting ideas from Chester on our youtube page.

April 1, 2009 · Leave a Comment
Dr. Lowell Catlett has added a new topic to his keynote presentations. The title: GET REAL! Understanding Today’s Economy and Tomorrow’s New Future. Catlett’s description: Economic downturns are common (14 recessions during the last 80 years) and provide a means for society to re-balance what they deem important. Every recession leads to a spurt in new business starts, reformulation of business practices and new technological adaptations. This current pause is no exception as we focus on what we value most. Get ready for phenomenal growth in healthcare, energy and lifestyle markets. For those willing to embrace the opportunities, the next decade will be successful beyond any in history.
