    Leadership presence
    Two day course

    Pilot course

    How can we bring our authentic selves when we lead? Can we be in the moment or do the demands of the job mean that we are always running towards the next meeting or crisis. Can we be totally in the moment when we are in front of people - can we develop more capacity to handle ourselves under pressure. Can we find our unique voice and passion and bring this to our organisation. Can we find a sense of authentic purpose for ourselves? Leadership demands new levels of realationship skills from us.

    Course would include a thorough grounding in relationship presence.

    going deeper/wider - public speaking
    pilot course

    an eight evening course spread over 8 months with a double meeting at the start of the process.

    I’ve been thinking of developing an additional course for people who want to transform fear of public speaking AND in the process want more time to explore a range of “thinking” and “being” tools for life and deepen the work of the normal four week course.
    In a way public speaking gives us a magnifying glass to the feelings about who we are and how we see ourselves. If we can gently explore this fear we can melt that fear and soften around it. In the process we can change more than our fear of public speaking. Powerful things can start happen to our lives and change. Here is a couple of quotes from the standard four week course.

    Wish I had done the course years ago. It provides ongoing skills which can be used everyday and not just in speaking situations. Inner confidence is developed in addition to much more.

    Thank you John. Learning to banish my inner critic has changed my life.


    So in addition to the standard speaking circle course which is the core of the work we will be looking at our inner critic, what stops us from being happy, principles of thinking, self-acceptance, our essential self and the idea of mindfulness and our higher purpose amongst other things. Its not about me imposing a particular approach - its about you exploring ideas that appeal for you.
