    Building Personal Resilience

    Cope and thrive in the face of challenges.

    In a world constantly evolving, resilience is not just a quality; it's a superpower. Resilience enables us to cope with change, problems and stress, and helps us to turn stumbling blocks into stepping stones and setbacks into comebacks.

    This workshop is designed to educate, empower and inspire individuals to maximise their own level of resilience required to respond positively to the pressures and demands in their personal and professional environment. They will acquire practical insights and empowering strategies to not only navigate challenges but to emerge stronger, more adaptable, and ready to conquer any obstacle.

    Improving Interpersonal Skills with DISC

    Understand behaviour styles to enhance connections and teamwork.

    DISC is a highly beneficial tool to assist us in recognising differences between people. It helps us understand ourselves and others better. By accepting, respecting, and adapting to these differences we can build long-term relationships and positive influence.

    Participants will complete a self-evaluation survey in the lead-up to the program, an important element to learn more about their own personality traits and spot behavioural preferences in others. Attendees will walk away from this engaging training with the knowledge of how to recognise other people's behavioural patterns so they can modify their communication to achieve win/win outcomes.

    Proactively develop your team’s capacity to foster effective collaboration, enhance communication, and strengthen relationships to drive success.

    Learn more.

    Mastering Constructive Feedback

    Promote growth through effective communication techniques.

    As professionals, we're all familiar with the process of receiving and giving feedback, but we don't always have the tools to make it a graceful, constructive and positive experience. Feedback can be difficult to give and receive, but when done effectively, it can promote growth and contribute to a positive work environment.

    These engaging training sessions are an opportunity to learn how to confidently lead conversations, manage emotions and pushbacks, and establish a feedback-ready culture. Participants will walk away with a well-tested and powerful toolkit of feedback techniques to promote growth and development within themselves and their teams.

    Proactively develop your team’s ability to successfully deliver and receive valuable feedback, ultimately elevating the overall synergy and success of your workplace.

    Engage Learners

    Reinvigorate the classroom to maximise the student's potential.

    Traditional knowledge-based teaching styles are being replaced with brain-based learning strategies to ensure students can become curious, determined, adaptable and independent learners. Many educators wish they would understand what makes their students ‘tick’, so they could help them solve issues and problems timelier and effectively. However, they have not yet found an easy-to-understand roadmap to quickly and accurately identify the underlying causes. Until now.

    The focus in this engaging workshop is on innovation, and how teachers and trainers can assist their students to create a mindset of excellence with the help of the ‘7 logical levels of thinking’.Classroom engagement to maximise the student's potential.

    Program outcomes may include:

    • Innovation – the key to success
    • Presuppositions for student engagement
    • What’s in our control – and what’s not?
    • Reinvigorate the class – how to maximise human potential

      Interested in our popular DISC profiles?

      Personalised “DISC Behavioural Preference” profiles are extremely popular, because they offer a simple solution with profound results.

      Participants learn more about their own personality traits and behavioural preferences, and how to recognise other people’s behavioural patterns so they can modify their communication to enhance cooperation, interpersonal connections, and performance.

      DISC awareness can assist organisations in developing a thriving culture and many other areas of business, such as building positive relationship, and revealing top candidates during an interview process by comparing their behavioural preferences with the job requirements.

      We offer 3 general options, all tailored to your needs:

      Why you should choose PROfound Leadership

      Your facilitation style and knowledge is very useful

       

      I liked having my thoughts challenged; my greatest learning was that the only thing we can control is our own attitudes / actions / behaviours. Thank you, Martin. I found your facilitation style and knowledge very useful.

      Much more than expected

       

      The event was much more than I expected. My single greatest learning was to look at my values and how I can use them to guide my decisions. Thank you, Martin, for your time and enthusiasm.

      Amazing workshop

       

      The event provided me some insights of the behavioural approach I know and understand but never really incorporated in my life. I guess now is the time to incorporate that if I wish to achieve my desired goal. Thankyou for this amazing workshop!
