The three stages
Outlook
Our primary course consists of a mix of:
- information
- discussions
- processes
- insights
Information/Discussions
Designed to allow you to look at situations from a new angle, the information is simple to follow, yet powerful in its application. The interactive nature of the discussions allows individual contribution and an opportunity to examine one’s own thoughts and preconceptions.
Processes
These are a wide mix of different activities, all of which are designed to give the individual participant an experience. Because we are all unique, we will have a unique experience, and have an opportunity to learn something from it.
Learning
You will have the opportunity to reflect and draw out your own insights and learnings from the activities, as well as learning from other participants, and our experienced trainers. Previous learnings have included:
“I need to trust myself more”
“There are possibilities I’ve never seen or considered”
“I never knew I did that!”
At the end of Outlook you will:
- Know how you connect with others
- Know the impact of your connection on others
- Have tools to create closer relationships
- Have tools to create more success
- Have a clear goal to apply to improve your life
Because Outlook is a ‘learning by doing’ course, people report the following additional benefits:
- Create close friendships
- Having fun
Essence
On Essence, we take the lessons learnt on Outlook and spend the entire time doing processes.
Each of the processes adds depth and further experience from which each participant gains more learning.
Essence has three distinct phases:
- Going beyond our fears
- Discovering a ‘core truth’ about ourselves
- Becoming the ‘source’ in our life
Our fears have such an impact on us. Some of our fears we are conscious of, others are unconsciously controlling our actions. In the first phase of Essence we discover that we have a strength inside us more powerful than any fear, and we learn how to access it.
Each of us has a ‘Core Truth’ that has the power to change lives. You will discover your ‘core truth’ and you will find the power that it has in your life.
You know how some people manage to ‘make things happen’. They seem to be able to create great enterprises, host parties, lead projects. Imagine that inside of you was a source of power to create whatever you want in life. In the third phase of Essence you will discover that source, and learn how to apply it in very practical ways.
The Summit
The Summit is a completely different course from Outlook and Essence. Held in retreat-like surroundings, all your basic needs are taken care of by the team, leaving you free to concentrate on some big questions:
- What do I want for my life?
- What is my purpose?
- How can I best use my talents?
- How would I define success?
- How can I best live my life in accordance with my values?
The Summit’s focus is on success. What successes have I had in the past, and what success do I want in the future?
You will leave the Summit with your own Definition of Success (DoS). It’s like a personal mission statement and a contract you have with yourself. With your DoS, you will always know when you are ‘on purpose’ and when you are ‘off course’. When your DoS is written and known to you, you can recognise that you are ‘off course 90% of the time’ and get back on course much quicker.
