individual and as a leader.
Why is confidence so important? Did you
know that studies show us that confidence
means more than competence? Leaders not
only need the technical know how but the
confidence to be leaders and drive change
and strategy within their organisations. This
interactive session will explain why confi-
dence matters, howto build it and what to do
about it with a little neuroscience.

3. STRENGTHS BASED
LEADERSHIP
THE LEARNING OUTCOMES ARE
Successful organisations have identified that
the most prominent gains in improvement
for individual employees, teams and leaders
begins with a primary investment in identify-
ing and working with pre-existing strengths
and talents. The key is to discover what traits
and talents are most natural for each of us
and then build upon these to make them
strengths. Strengths-based development
involves the identification oftalents, integra-
tion into one’s view of themselves, and
resulting changes in behavior. This workshop
includes strengths based online assessment
and the report and aciton plan must be
brought to the workshop.
Why Strengths Based Leadership
is pivotal today!

YOUR PERSONAL BRAND!
THE LEARNING OUTCOMES ARE
Your personal brand or professional reputa-
tion has a direct influence on your impact as a
contributor, leader and business owner. Think
about it - how your colleagues, staff, busi-
ness partners, managers, or clients perceive
you is how you will be defined. Perception is
reality. So unless you bring something unique
and compelling to the table, you run the risk
of being seen as a commodity. It is also the
secret to standing out and to understand
what is the unique you—in person, on paper,
and online. You need to understand and
create a brand that will make the true you
shine. Think of your personal brand as your
calling card—your unique promise of value.
It's what you're known for and how people
experience you.
It all starts with building your personal brand.
This session also incorporates a Personal
Branding 360 Assessment which takes 15
days to complete.
What are your unique strengths, skills,
and attributes?
What do you want to be known for?
Let’s talk about how you sell yourself
What is your leadership presence?
How do you network?
What did you learn from your 360?
RESILIENCE – BUILD STRENGTH,
BALANCE AND FOCUS...
Resilience is VITAL today. Resilience is the
POSITIVE adaptation by individuals, despite
their experi- ences of significant stress,
change or adversity. Emotional resilience
isn’t about toughing it and ignoring feelings.
It’s about knowing yourself, your stressors,
and when to reach out to others. It’s also as a
leader howto build resilience in those around
you.
In this session we will provide you with the
ability to identify characteristics of resilient
people, as well as practical tools and tech-
niques you can implement to help you take
control, increaseyourresilience and minimise
stress – with some cool neuroscience.
THE LEARNING OUTCOMES ARE
Why is Resilience important?
Neuroscience of Resilience
