Exactly how to do things you never thought you could.
This covers imposter syndrome, growth mindset, understanding what makes change tough and accomplishing 'mission impossible'
The only way to accelerate transformation to deliver the plan is through your people owning it, courageously trying new, uncertain things and taking astute, managed risks while managing their well-being.
How can we bounce back from setbacks and keep moving forward when the grind is on and success is not guaranteed?
We all encounter setbacks. We all have to push through ’the grind’ phase to deliver anything worthwhile. And for those of us who push the limits – we have to move forward every day without any guarantee of success.
How to operate outside the comfort zone, successfully, healthily and happily, in an age of no normal.
The elite freediver’s mindfulness tools and mental disciplines for handling uncertainty and risk without tension and anxiety
High performing teams know why they are so. They have an architecture: proven engineering embedded within a robust design that is unique to the task and team.
How to create the safety and purpose your people need to operate in uncertainty and to follow you across stormy waters.
