Winning with Optimism
Filled with enlightening practical demonstrations, video presentations and participation from attendees, this program addresses the “path” to optimism.
Selecting optimism as a choice is not enough. You’ll learn about the five most prevalent self-destructive beliefs the mind has…and how to erase them forever. In the Dynamics of Optimism there are several other important steps, each interlinked and each building on each other. They can be implemented in an hour, learned and never able to be forgotten in two hours, and the benefit and well being from them is carried forward by everyone at the end of the day.
Self esteem improves immensely. Positivity becomes automatic. Forethought and planning in the affirmative becomes a “set alone” brain activity.
Optimistic ability is transformed into tangible accomplishments. And the greatest thing about learning the dynamics of Optimism is that is stays with you at work, at home, at play and even at rest.
The result for your Company? Increased productivity, exceptional teamwork, resourceful creativity, better problem solving, automatic goal setting, and effective leadership, even stress management.

Winning with Focus
Focus – one of the most overlooked traits of being an effective business operator, manager, employee, even parent.
Focus starts – and stops in the brain.
With over 100 billion brain cells – the brain is not a computer. It is in fact an assembly of millions and billions of computers. Therefore at any time and in any particular location, the brain can have a lot “going on”. The Dynamics of Focus will teach you how it’s very possible and relatively easy to teach the brain – these millions of computers – to work together – to FOCUS.
What does focus give us?
Firstly – the ability to see the task or challenge at hand very clearly. To have undivided concentration which leads to superb decision making, intense energy production (mental and physical), profound learning capabilities and understanding, and uncompromised satisfaction which enhances self esteem and the ability to communicate with the utmost clarity.
Being unable to focus, or – always being distracted - is one of the top five most listed “problems” discussed by executives, managers and entrepreneurs. In fact – with a lack of focus, stress levels increase, clear communication disappears, productivity declines, optimism and team spirit wanes.
This program is complete with intense attendee participation, video presentations and is a positive, energized day of theory and activities with amazing results.

Winning with High Achievement
We all want it. High achievement. We want to excel at our best. We want to “rise above” what is normal, and perform like champions – in business as well as in sport.
So what are the traits of a high achiever? There are several.
First and foremost – Self awareness, openness, understanding, empathy, self honesty, leadership.
Self Esteem – a feeling of true self worth.
Self Control – that is determination and - all important – choice.
Self Motivation – the most oversold program in the World. Yet self motivation is essential – that desire for change, the urge to excite and excel.
Self Expectancy – optimism, enthusiasm, hope.
There’s self image - projecting creativity and the ability to visualize, and not forgetting the all important - self dimension. There are no high achievers without it. The unique ability to have vision, embrace all of humanity, be a “total” leader.
This program educates, directs, demonstrates and fine tunes executives, managers, departmental leaders and exceptional employees to understand the dynamics of being a high achiever with complete effectiveness.
This program will see participants return to the work place with a broader vision, a renewed enthusiasm for excellence, extra qualities for leadership resulting in greater team leadership and teamwork, and a noticeable dynamic manner and grace that compliment your Company’s philosophy and ideals.

Winning with Customer Loyalty
Every Company searches for it. Every Company strives to retain it. Customer loyalty.
What does customer loyalty bring to you?
Firstly the knowledge that you really do “put the customer first”. But there is more to it than that. Customer loyalty is “won”. It's “earned”, it’s “deserved”. One thing for sure, it doesn’t automatically come just because you have the product.
This program takes participants through a step by step process of “customer thinking”. You get to see the picture from the “other side”. A real understanding of how to listen acutely to each customer and tailor make their needs so as to create the “double win” – you win, we win. We take away the myth of the customer being “them” and the Company being “us”. Earning customer loyalty involves a strategic plan, embracing all of your Companies philosophies with the customers needs, and ensuring that unprecedented value is created at all times.
Customers become partners – associates in business. An integral part of your continued growth and success. Customer loyalty guarantees a profitable and dynamic business, with all involved empowered to strive for a tremendous competitive advantage. Work ethic becomes superb, customer service second to none, a reputation that is unquestionable, prestige in the market place that is immeasurable, a shaping of employees, - the customer - and the future - that your competitors see as unfathomable.
This program is essential for Companies striving for extraordinary achievement, with a relentless pursuit for maximum performance and who never want to loose sight of the importance of placing the customer first.

OTHER TOPICS – [THUMBNAIL SUMMARY]

SELF TALK 1
This talk throws light on how the conscious mind is always making dialogue. Depending on upbringing, education and environment, self-talk can be “free wheeling”…that is to say….no control. Understanding self-talk is to understand that who we are, what we are and where we are in our lives today is the by-product of our self-talk. How do you talk to yourself?

SELF TALK 2
How’s work? How’s your job? Do you look forward to the start of the week, or the end of the week? How do you talk to yourself about the stresses of work? Self-talk is responsible for how you feel about your job/career and also is responsible for your performance. Master your self-talk and you master every day of your life.

SELF TALK 3
How’s your lifestyle? Overweight? Stressed out? Never enough hours in the day? Relationship strained? Career on a plateau?
It’s your self-talk!! When you understand and utilize correct self-talk it’s possible to loose weight without a diet, rid yourself of stress, improve your relationship and rise to new heights in your career. It’s all about self-talk.

SELF TALK 4
This presentation was designed for elite athletes. Learn to focus the mind and what goes on in it, so that it mimics a magnifying glass in the sun starting a fire. Intense focus requires precise and sculptured self-talk. Including demonstrations on how the body can immediately react to precise self-talk [lowering the heart rate to 45 and then surging to 120], this presentation will demonstrate an extra dimension in the quest to be the very best.

MISSION STATEMENT – FOR LIFE
How many businesses don’t have a Mission Statement, a Charter?
Lots!! But why? Surely these companies have goals, have targets, have purpose. What about the individuals within the company?
A Mission Statement is a must. For the company and for EVERY individual within the company. Find out how a company and its employees can set a blazing path of extreme success, by creating individual and team Mission Statements.

OLYMPIC GOLD CEREMONY
This is an elaborate presentation utilizing video, music and carefully worded scripts to take participants to their own “Gold Medal” ceremony. This session is designed only for those with a burning passionate desire to be the best, those with an unrelenting pursuit and commitment to excellence, those who eat, breathe and sleep - desire, motivation, determination, courage, persistence and set no limits. An extraordinary “journey”, but only for extraordinary people.

THE ART OF TAKING CONTROL
By exercising choice you can take control of your life. This “workshop” presentation can be designed as a half day or full day seminar. Would you like to be in control of the things that happen to you? Do you have the commitment to change? The secret is, you only have to change one thing – only one – to be in control. Find out what that is, in a stimulating presentation suitable for individuals, companies, teams and community groups.

DESERVING TO WIN
Winning is not coming first!! Winning is about positive self-esteem. It starts with your childhood, and the responsibility of your parents. A company should be held responsible for the self-esteem of their staff. Wrongly interpreted as ego, flamboyance, big headedness or being a show-off, by learning the “fine line” which separates these will ensure you understand more about yourself, your team and those around us.

SELF-EXPECTANCY
This session presents some incredible biological reasons for our destiny. Learn about Psychosomatic and about Voodoo. We really do get what we expect…that’s self-expectancy. “I always get the flu in July!!”. “At this rate I’ll go broke!!”. “I’ll never make this months budget!!” “I can’t see myself doing business with this guy!!”.
The body and mind combine together and guarantee to give us exactly what we expect. Here’s a session to show you how to make this work for you.

SIMULATION – THE SYNTHETIC EXPERIENCE
Businessperson, mother, student, athlete, coach, employee…no matter who you are, simulation must form a part of your EVERY day life. Winners always simulate, they “do within when they are without”. When you know how to simulate, you know how to win. We’re not talking about sport; we’re talking about “life”. Simulation is supported by self-discipline. This session opens the mind up to a whole new experience.

ATTITUDE-THE STEERING WHEEL OF LIFE
Within each of ourselves, attitude is something we rarely examine. Now that point has been made…would you know what to look for?
Attitude is the “edge”, and needs to be developed. Attitude is not a gift at birth, it’s not talent, nor is it IQ. Attitudes cannot be purchased. How’s your attitude? Attitude is part of the formula for success, wealth, health and happiness. Let this session fine tune your attitude.

BELIEF vs. FAITH
Now here’s a stimulating session. As human beings we crave to believe in “something”, or develop a “faith”. Is there a difference? For aborigines it may be the witch-doctor, for millions of Christians it’s “God”, for children it’s Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny, for the sick it’s the doctor, the poor it’s destiny, the rich it’s fortune. Truth be known, the mind has a “belief system”, developed from birth and usually left to roam wildly and wrongly. Find out how to cultivate your beliefs, change your beliefs, master your beliefs…for in the end; “you are what you believe”.

TEAM BUILDING
Not to be confused with “teamwork”, we have several teambuilding exercises encompassing half day and full day sessions. These sessions are full of fun and excitement and provide a different challenge for each participant which in turn demonstrates the qualities of “building” a team when tackling a common purpose. All team building exercises are conducted “outdoor” – and are safe and well constructed programs which do not rely on fitness or sport ability. A wonderful program for corporations to gather their personnel together for a joint learning and meaningful experience.
