Ignite Your Team: Using the SPARK Method to Lead, Inspire, and Build a Team that Cares

A boots-on-the-ground 5-Step guide to building a productive team that shows up and cares.

Managers of hourly or part-time employees have a tough yet rewarding job. They have to operate as coach and mentor, stay on top of company goals, build the culture, plus focus on the bottom line and effectively lead a team of varied personalities. At the same time, managers deal with high turnover, unmotivated teams, and employees that go AWOL.

When managers find a way to connect with their employees, the impact is powerful. Igniting motivation for your team in this climate of high burnout and low retention is essential. And the SPARK Method is the secret you need.

Management coach JC Bernstein knows what it's like to be on the floor as a front-line manager.
