Investment In Excellence
Investment in Excellence is of 4 days in duration and is divided into two phases each of which are 2 days in duration. IIE
is delivered through dvd training teaching modules, expanded and
reinforced by a facilitator through group discussion, small group work,
role play and reflective exercises.
Concepts Covered:
Self-efficacy
Our belief about our ability to cause or make things happen.
How our mind works
Participants
understand that they act, work and perform in accordance with the truth
as they see it and that past experiences and conditioned beliefs that
are stored in the subconscious, affect the choices and risks we take.
This model gives us the basic understanding that it is the image we
hold about ourselves that determines how we behave.
How beliefs are established
Before
attempting change, we need to understand how past conditioning has
influenced our thought processes and how people we have listened to in
the past have helped us to create our present beliefs about ourselves.
Vision and current reality
The key to creating excellence and change is to develop a vision which is stronger than the current reality.
Habits and attitudes
In
the world of accelerating change, our old habits and attitudes may be
holding back our development. We need to identify those that are
contributing to our growth and those we see value in changing.
Self image and comfort zones
An
understanding of the impact of self-image and how it is formed and
reinforced by self-talk. Where and why we feel comfortable or
uncomfortable in certain situations, these are important tools for
self-development and managing the change process.
The Performance Cycle
This establishes the relationship between the self-talk, self-image and real performance delivered in the outside world.
Affirmations and goal setting
Once
we have created a vision and an understanding of how to change and
grow, we need specific steps to achieve the goals we've set.
Motivation
The
only true motivation is self-motivation, anything else we push back
against. We should understand that we need to be accountable for our
actions and the results we produce, both personally and
organisationally.
Phase two of IIE is designed with the
individual and the organisation in mind. Concepts covered include
Leadership, Vision and Values, Resilience, Living a Purposeful Life,
Creativity, Stages of Development and Continuous Improvement and Growth.
