Awakening in Others the Inspiration to Excel
See a Sample of This Teleseminar
People often refer to others motivating them to take action or pursue a goal. Can we really motivate others? No we can’t. Why? Because the essence of motivation is an internal force – it comes from within a person, not from outside of them.
Why then, do people so often refer to someone motivating them? It is not because someone gave them the motivation but rather that someone helped them find it within themselves.
While we can’t motivate others, there are many times in life when we are called on to provide support and encouragement. Someone may come to you and ask for a helping hand as they set off on a personally challenging endeavor. They are trying to make a personal change and they know they will need support.
Your participants will discover specific skills, tools and techniques to help someone pursue a change or goal. They will learn a powerful process to help others find their initial motivation, sustain their momentum, and re-light the fire of motivation so they can successfully achieve that meaningful goal or change.
