In this program video, trainees get a complete
overview of the Pygmalion Effect through real-life
examples, dramatic vignettes and scenes from the classic movie
"Pygmalion," where individuals are transformed through
the positive (or negative) expectations of another. The four
ways managers transmit expectations to their
subordinates-climate, feedback, input and output are also
depicted.
Description:
It's a fact. Limited expectations bring limited results, high
expectations lead to exceptional results. The phenomenon is
known as the Pygmalion Effect and it has been documented
numerous times in both business and education.
The good news is that you can teach your
managers how to create the positive results of the Pygmalion
Effect with their employees, improving productivity and morale
in the process. This newly revised Pygmalion Effect training
program clearly illustrates that the way we view subordinates
can completely change the outcome of any given project.

This information, along with exercises contained
in the program's expanded Leader's Guide and Participant
Workbook, teaches your managers to:
-
Understand how positive/negative
expectations create self-fulfilling prophecies.
-
Develop the skills to positively influence
coworkers and subordinates.
-
Raise the expectations they have for their
staff members.
-
Believe more in their own ability to
positively influence and lead others.
The Pygmalion Effect is part of a long
line of Pygmalion programs that have been favorites of trainers
for more than twenty years. New features of this third edition
include: video footage from a Pygmalion training session at the
Dunn Edwards paint company and a powerful reenactment of a Dunn
Edwards "positive Pygmalion" success story, plus an
all-new interview with topic expert Dr. Robert Rosenthal.
Expanded workshop tools help participants fully
grasp the importance of managing their expectations and enable
them to develop comprehensive short- and long-term plans for
applying the Pygmalion principles in their daily work
environments.
