Learn to apply a scientifically proven approach to positively changing behavior
Organizational Behavior Management (OBM) is a powerful and proven method to improve the performance and well-being of people in organizations. OBM is not a one-size-fits-all approach, but a flexible and adaptable framework that can be tailored to your specific needs and context. Whether you want to improve your own leadership skills, develop your team's capabilities or optimize your organization's performance, this OBM training provides you with the tools and techniques to achieve your goals. Discover our APMG Certified OBM Foundation Training Course!
Achieve your goals. OBM helps you to define, measure, and analyze the behaviors that are critical for achieving your organizational objectives. By applying the principles of behavior analysis, you will design effective interventions to increase the frequency and quality of desired behaviors and decrease or eliminate undesired behaviors.
Motivate your employees. OBM helps you to create a positive and supportive work environment where your employees feel valued and appreciated. By using social rewards such as prais, feedback, recognition and encouragement you will reinforce the behaviors that contribute to your organization's succes.
Solve problems and implement changes. OBM helps you to diagnose and address the behavioral root causes of organizational challenges, such as low productivity, high turnover, poor quality or customer dissatisfaction. You will learn to plan and execute behavior change initiatives for continuous improvement, innovation or culture transformation.
"Great training! You get a good overview of what behavior change means, where OBM comes from and how you can analyze and classify behavior and what it means when you make behavior changes in organizations. Great trainer, also a great experience online!"
