About the Speaker
Philip Hunter is an experienced, strategic organization effectiveness professional consulting
with various industries, including manufacturing, banking, pharmaceuticals and information
technology in Canada and the USA. He loves making a difference. He hates "warm and fuzzy" work that doesn"t translate into tangible results. Philip has a PhD in Industrial/Organizational
Psychology from the University of North Texas.
Who should attend?
Just so we"re clear - this is not just another "soft and fuzzy" HR type presentation. We"re going
to be discussing tools and principles that have been researched to death, but are surprisingly
absent from the public domain. Some of these findings about the "Human Machine" may strike
you as odd. Some of them may strike you as counter-intuitive. And yes, some of them might
strike you as nonsense. |

Abstract |
| |
Some of you might have some knowledge of the process side of
Lean and Six Sigma. But what about the "Human Machine"? How
do we get our "Lean" message across, execute great projects, and
show tangible results? How do we organize, communicate with
and just plain get people to implement and sustain Lean solutions
that are on-time and within budget? Where can we go for help?
Jump on Google, or browse the business section of any bookstore
and you"ll be inundated with bold, flashy titles such as these:
 |
"How to MOTIVATE others!" |
|
"We need LEADERS, not managers!" |
|
"How the world"s best managers INSPIRE their
employees to deliver results" |
|
"How 4 weeks of tap dancing lessons leads to a
HIGH PERFORMANCE workplace!" |
Ok - maybe you haven"t seen that last title. But you"ve certainly
seen the first three!
Here"s a contrarian's proposal–
Whether you"re a front-line employee, supervisor team/project
manager, or VP, it"s not your job to motivate anyone, because
that"s not how the "Human Machine" works!
We"re going to look at the following:
- What the "Human Machine" needs to achieve and sustain
high performance.
- What"s inside each and every one of your employees and
colleagues that"s waiting to be unleashed.
- The key to high performing individuals, teams,
departments and organizations.
