For managers and executives who are watching their employees struggle, there is a simple solution that can turn a workplace around in just 12 weeks -- and grow the bottom line. This book shows businesspeople how to inspire -- not just motivate -- others by tapping into their dreams and tying them to corporate goals. Along the way, those inspiring organisations make more money, have bet-ter employee retention, and earn greater customer loyalty than their competitors do. Being authentic, seeing others abilities, connecting with other people's dreams, and earning trust through credibility are some of the tenets of author Terry Barber's programme. To underscore the seven principles of inspiration he outlines, he offers real-life applications throughout the book based on his almost thirty years of experience. And to help leaders nail the art and science of identifying and applying their unique abilities to inspire others, he provides thought-provoking questions and concrete exercises that can be implemented the very day they open the book. For leaders who question whether they and their teams are valuing the right things, focusing on the right priorities, and building a supportive environment, this book offers confidence, personal fulfilment, and a more productive, happier workforce.

In an attempt to motivate their workforce, misguided employers can sometimes use threats, fear, and even manipulation. And while it may temporarily get a more productive result, in the long run it only frustrates and deflates their employees. Further, this negative reinforcement can even produce a high turnover rate. Author Terry Barber says that it doesn?t have to be this way. And why motivate when you can inspire?
?The Inspiration Factor: How You Can Revitalize Your Company Culture in 12 Weeks? is a fresh, Stephen Covey-esque process on empowering and positively motivating employees for a happier and more productive company culture. Barber offers down to earth, real advice on being authentic while uplifting those around you. He delves into his four personality profiles, explains different leadership styles and how to relate to various individuals if you take their own personalities into account, and the art of establishing and maintaining credibility. Like Covey?s seven habits, Barber has seven principles meant to boost low morale and show others the potential that they may not already see within themselves. Tried and true, these simple principles have not only shown increased productivity and decreased turnover but overall a better quality of life at work and at home. Whether you are a born leader or have simply risen to a position where it is now required of you, you?ll find ample information and advice. At the end of each chapter, he even offers weekly objectives and further work to help you during the process of becoming an inspiring boss.
?The Inspiration Factor? is a fantastic read for employers, managers, and supervisors as well as anyone in a mentoring position. Barber?s language and style are easy to understand and to put into practice regardless of personality profile. The book itself is extremely well edited and contains no noticeable errors. The cover is simple but professional and projects an authoritative feel.
?The Inspiration Factor: How You Can Revitalize Your Company Culture in 12 Weeks? puts ?passion? back into ?work? by recognizing employees? individual talents while empowering them to realize their unmet potential. If you enjoyed Stephen Covey?s ?Seven Habits of Highly Effective People?, Terry Barber is a must read. Inspiring!
