Tweak™ - The Future of Management
How To Build Employee Trust, Engagement and High-Performance in 10-seconds
In 2015, 75% of the workforce will be either over 50 years of age or under 30. 75% of your workforce will either be getting ready to be grandparents or graduating from university.
This is going to set up a Culture Clash you you have never before experienced. Old-style management will not get the job done. Introducing, Tweak™ Management.
Tweak™ Management is not difficult to comprehend or to practice. It does not involve long hours in boring sessions. It is not about creating a paper trail and filling out endless reports. It is not about stretching yourself out of your comfort zone or about taking on complex leadership ideologies that even some senior managers have difficulty with.
No, Tweak™ is about employing the natural talents of most decent middle-managers and having a keen understanding of what triggers an employee's internal motivation: things like recognition, offering simple instruction, easy-to-accomplish tasks, un-jargoned communication and helping employees feel like their contribution matters which creates a more focused, loyal and engaged employee.
Kevin Burns, Author, Management Consultant and one of North America's foremost authorities on Workplaces Of The Future presents his keynote message, Tweak™ - The Future of Management. Tweak™ is a hybrid management strategy built from the best practices and philosophies of Kaizen, team sports coaching, LEAN manufacturing, YouTube and more - all working together to create a seamless integration of Leadership into Management. Utilizing Tweak will allow your managers To Build Employee Trust, Engagement and High-Performance in 10-seconds!
The Attitude Strategy™
How To Engage in 30 Days And Build Morale And Customer Focus
How Is Culture Related To Attitude?
Culture = Behavior. How people behave toward each other, toward customers, toward work ethic, toward engagement on the job, toward management and toward how stressful they perceive their work to be are ALL learned behaviors - attitudes.
New employees joining any organization are quickly enrolled in the "how we do thing's 'round here" school of behavior and acceptable attitudes - regardless of how well they have been trained. People want to fit in and so they will mirror the behaviors and attitudes of the majority. In essence, the prevailing attitudes create your Culture.

Safety Attitude Adjustment™
What Most Safety Professionals Miss In Trying To Build A Culture of Safety
What is Safety Attitude? It's how your people think of safety. A Safety Attitude goes beyond the time clock. A Safety Attitude has no start and end time. A Safety Attitude is a state of mind - not a tolerance for the rules while on shift. Look, if compliance worked, we’d all be at Zero all of the time.
Are you instilling a Safety Culture or simply a safety compliance program? What's the difference? Safety compliance makes your people wear their requisite PPE during their shift but then the workers go home and cut their lawn wearing sandals. That's not Safety Attitude or Safety Culture. That's just plain tolerating the rules only because they're forced to.
Without addressing Safety Attitude, you will never successfully establish a Culture of Safety.
In the first few moments of Kevin’s presentation, you’ll know that this is not another boring safety meeting.
Kevin Burns, one of North America's foremost authorities on Safety Attitude and Corporate Culture of Safety presents his keynote message, The Safety Attitude Adjustment™.
Using hilarious stories and a real-world, you-are-here focus, Kevin offers ten ways to incorporate a Safety Attitude in each and every worker on the job because you have two choices: address Safety Attitude and Safety Culture at your next safety meeting - or - "hope and pray" a little harder that you can get to Zero without addressing the Attitudes that are causing the incidents.
