What is Self-Management?
Self-Management is based on the fundamental principle that you need to manage yourself to be able to effectively manage work and relationships around you. Self-Management teaches you to control your mind’s emotions with thinking and reason. A clear, controlled mind enables you to enhance performance, reduce stress, improve your relationships and become a better leader. Importantly, you gain a direction towards true fulfilment and purpose in work and life.
Self-Management is primarily derived from ancient eastern philosophical wisdom that contains universal time-tested principles of life and living. The program also blends in modern, western philosophical thought to create a complete presentation based on humanity’s wisdom of the ages and its practical application to life and business.
"It was truly an honor to hear you speak at our YPO chapter. The reaction to your presentation was overwhelmingly positive and life changing."
