“They know what to do - so why don't they do it?”
A professional development program with international speaker Nick Hall
The human brain is wired to resist change. Therefore, when people are asked to achieve a goal, their natural tendency is to play it safe and just keep doing what they always have. To avoid the prospect of failure, their mantra becomes, Better safe than sorry! It worked before so why change? An effective leader must be capable of knowing when change is necessary, overcoming peoples natural reluctance to follow, and then providing the necessary guidance so the group can effectively adjust. This program will reveal how:
- The reasons for success today can result in failure tomorrow.
- To recognize the warning signs of decline and implement change before it’s too late.
- An understanding of a person’s temperament can be an invaluable tool in persuading them to follow.
- Fear of failure can be transformed into a recipe for success.
- To define a goal in a way that greatly insures it will be achieved.
