| Event Description: | People leadership is easier when we understand the nine instincts that drive human behaviour.
Offices and factories are not our natural habitat. With the Industrial Revolution just 250 years ago, in moving from our hunting, gathering and village societies we did not drop the instincts as a social species. We carry with us the suite of behaviours that come with being born human. In this informative session you will learn how the instincts of clan connections, hierarchy, gossip, politics, snap judgments, status displays and sexual competition continue to drive modern workplace interactions just as they have driven human interaction for millennia. This breakfast will appeal to HR leaders who want to avoid making predictable people-management mistakes and who want to use a framework that uses natural forces to lift engagement and output. Places will be limited so book early to avoid disappointment. Cost: $44.00 (inc GST) |
