Why Performance Is Under Pressure

And How Motivation Becomes the Gamechanger
More detailed information
Sounds familiar?
Team members who are absent more often than present
Complaining at the coffee machine, but little ownership
Teams with good intentions but lacking true action
Gossip, noise, and “this is just how we do things here”
Managers pulling all the weight while motivation fades under their feet
Let’s be honest: how much energy is leaking away here—day after day?
The solution? Not another well-being or motivation campaign.
Instead: High Quality Motivation – built on four powerful essentials that actually help teams thrive.
Because guess what? Intrinsic motivation isn’t always the holy grail. And thankfully so, because let’s face it – work isn’t always fun.
The good news? There’s a better way to motivate.
What to expect in this workshop:
1. The Motivation Check
How are your people really motivated? Discover whether they act from pressure (low quality motivation) or from purpose and enjoyment (high quality motivation).
And learn how to make the shift – sustainably.
2. The Purpose Check
How do you make work meaningful – even the boring or frustrating parts?
This tool introduces the four levels of meaning and shows how you can activate them at both individual and team level.
3. The ABC Check
People need more than a decent salary and a ping-pong table.
They crave Autonomy, Belonging, and a sense of Competence.
This check reveals the code to employees who not only feel good but also perform at their best.
4. The Strategy Check
Let’s be honest again: are your rules, processes, and systems enabling or suffocating motivation?
We’ll pinpoint where motivation leaks out – and how to redesign the structure to truly support people.
What High Quality Motivation delivers:
✅ Less absenteeism and lower turnover
✅ More ownership and positive energy
✅ Less drama, more action
✅ Teams that thrive and perform
✅ Leaders who move more with less effort
Ready for a keynote or workshop that actually works?
✅ Practical and concrete
✅ Backed by science
✅ Relatable and hands-on
✅ Applicable at work – and beyond
Say goodbye to victim mentality, excuses, and energy drain – and bring momentum back into your organisation.
