Top 3 reasons people leave their company – Lack of work that is rewarding and challenging, Bad bosses and Toxic work environment. Imagine what companies can do if they resolve these top 3 reasons people leave. 

Managers are the key to success. Most managers have little or no formal training in people management skills. They are promoted to the role of Managers because they had strong technical skills and managed the project effectively, not their people management skills. People management is a critical success factor to be an effective manager and to improve a company’s health and profitability.

REVUP™ is the acronym for a set of values and principles that managers and individuals can adopt to promote healthy work cultures. REVUP™ stands for “Respect,” “Equality,” “Valued” (as in I value you), Uniqueness and Potential. Imagine if you treated yourself and others with Respect and Equality, Valued others, then found their Uniqueness and taped into that Potential. Imagine the workplace you could help build.

To identify the “Uniqueness,” the Program introduces learners to Fascination Advantage® and the Fascination Advantage Assessment Tool®. This tool is a scientific research-based tool developed by Sally Hogshead. Unlike other tools such as Myers Brigg, DISC and others, Fascination Advantage looks at how the world sees you. Fascination Advantage’s philosophy is different is better.

Thanks to those who attended and had fun building lego, learning about what makes them unique as well as working through how to deal with those tough conversations.
