The “Motivating” Supervisor’s Calendar

THE “MOTIVATING" SUPERVISOR'S CALENDAR
A sample calendar has been developed that provides you with a motivational prompt for each working day in a typical month. Try it with your team and individual team members. It works! Create a blank calendar for the next month and write down something to do each day which is motivating for your team or a team member. Develop a reputation in your organization as a first-line supervisor who gives high priority attention to creating a motivating environment for her or his team.
