Confidence Means Acknowledging Fear and Doing It Anyway!

Imagine your life if you could let go of current beliefs that are stopping you from bidding on a major project, writing that book, or applying for that executive job.

How often do you pass up an opportunity because it feels too risky? How much more successful would you be if you were confident in your ability to perform well, and able to reduce the fear that comes with a certain amount of risk?

Risk-taking and confidence go hand-in-hand. Taking risks helps grows confidence and the more confident you feel, the more willing you are to take risks.

The only way to advance in our careers - and our lives - is to take risks and fail forward. In order to do that, we need to reduce the power that failing has over us. Failure isn't final; it's a key part of the learning process that leads to increased confidence, to bigger and bolder risk-taking and to greater success.

This session will provide you with:
-Techniques for assessing your confidence
-Ways for re-framing failures as learning opportunities
-Practice taking risks (psychologically, not physically!)
-Methods for increasing confidence by taking small steps every day that lead to bigger "wins"
-Ideas for doable commitments to flex your confidence muscle

This highly experiential, fun, activities-based session (read: no lecture!) will give each person a chance to experience risk, celebrate failure (as many successful companies do!), and increase confidence in a supportive environment where people can learn from each other.

What to bring: your sense of humor, an open mind, and a willingness to try. And, of course...comfortable shoes!

EXTRA: Each participant will get 1 hour of 1:1 coaching to help develop a personal action plan PLUS inclusion in one 1-hour group coaching call.
