Fellowship Framework:
The fellowship shall consist of following key components:
1. Being at my best – Learn how to recognise the belief patterns that in some situations may be the core to your strengths but in others can be the very pattern that undermines the quality of impact. The concept of attitude and state are core to our leadership impact. Powerful tools are taught in more consciously choosing attitude. The capacity to be ‘me’ with more skill – fundamental to leaders finding ‘their’ version of being inspirational.
2. Purpose led Leadership – To help leaders work out how their personal purpose and personality, their sense of self and the way they conduct themselves creates an overall presence or impact and how to make this work congruently for them.
3. Presence – In this module we will give you a chance to look at your current brand and at how this helps and hinders your ability to lead across the business – and in doing so to be able to enhance your presence in a way that is both authentic and powerful.
