Knowing Yourself and Embracing Business Change and Transition Workshop

Many people have to face change in both their personal and business lives - which can be self chosen or imposed upon us. Whether we are coming back into work after a long break, we are joining a new company, taking up a new role, setting up a new business or we are exiting a long work career. Returning from maternity, forced redundancy, a career switch or retirement can often pose a significant psychological challenge to many people. Our identity and sense of self are very much attached to our current role - be that manager, parent, professional athlete. We can struggle significantly with high levels of stress, low confidence and self belief when our work and personal life changes. How can we undergo this process more smoothly, with confidence and a greater sense of self awareness and purpose? What traps and triggers do our brains lay for us that we can better understand and manage to create more positive experiences. Workshop Aims We hope that attendees will be encouraged, empowered, energised from the session. You will learn about your own personal values and needs and how that shapes what you value and what you find challenging in life. Practical tips to turn threat to opportunity and stress into challenge. How to engage and communicate with others more effectively. How we might rethink change to train our brains to think differently, to minimise the negative impact on our mental well-being and motivate ourselves for what comes next. Our workshops have always received top feedback by attendees as both informative, honest and practical. The sessions will help inspire us moving forwards and equip us with psychological knowledge and techniques to achieve that positive growth and next step.

Business Communication and Motivation Workshop

Juggling roles in life is hard - and often confusing. Psychologically it can be a great source of stress. Added to that is the need to keep motivated and to be able to communicate and manage our relationships with others. Understanding what drives us at a deep non conscious psychological level is key to understanding what makes us engaged, happy, satisfied as well as how those needs shape our communications with others. Each attended will learn what are their core needs and what this means in relation to self motivation, stress and communication. They will also learn what other people are driven by and how we can use that information to be more mindful in recognising how we position our communication with others. How can knowing these needs help establish more constructive and less friction based communications with others?
