Limited expectations bring limited results, high expectations lead to exceptional results.

This 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, Power of Expectations" training video clearly illustrates that the way we view subordinates can completely change the outcome of any given project.

In the 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.

Interesting theory worth exploring for application in the workplace. I think managers might let the theory guide their actions. But the specifics outlined in Pygmalion Effect, Power of Expectations were too long and dry for one viewing. The film didn't maintain my attention and I found it difficult to watch it in its entirety. Stopping and actively discussing each section may enhance the learning.

Fascinating theory with strong, supporting examples.
Scenarios for discussion at the end of the film are excellent.

Takes too long to get to workplace relevancy.
Too much talking.

Helpful, and well done, but too dry for my training tastes. Although the concept is great, a little more "show don't tell" would be more effective.
