Great leaders understand that true leadership is not just about a title or position, it’s about being a positive influence, creating a positive impact, inspiring greatness in others and most important of all being the best versions of themselves. This session is designed to unlock self- belief and determination. Your team will leave this motivational experience with practical takeaways for professional and personal growth and inspiration to become the leader they truly are.

During this session Shefa will encourage participants to think of themselves as the CEO of their own life. As the decision-maker, they will learn that they hold the keys to their destiny. They will identify the qualities of a CEO they would like to adopt for their own life, learn about the sub-conscious mind and how they can use it daily and develop their own mission & vision statements for their lives.

Identifying and understanding our values is a challenging and important exercise. Personal values are a central part of who you are and who you want to be. By becoming more aware of these important factors in life, one can use them as a guide to make the best choice in any situation in one’s professional and personal life. In this session participants will get to understand the importance of having values, identify their own values, learn how values can guide them in decision making and how to align values to leadership choices and behaviour.

During this session Shefa will explore the difference between confidence, self- esteem and assertiveness. Participants will get exposed to skills and strategies to be more assertive in order to put their ideas and input forward. Healthy self-esteem is essential for growth and achieving success. Participants will discover how inner dialogue can encourage and support them and learn tools to change their thinking patterns and elevate the way they view themselves.

Some people often feel behind on their goals, they are distracted and feel like they never have enough hours in the day. This session is designed for those who are stuck in a place of time stress and want to make the very best use of their time. In this session participants will learn the true cause of being overwhelmed and how to beat it, understand how to prioritize when everything seems important and gain total clarity about what to promote to the top of the list each day and unlock techniques to break the stress cycle.

Leaders often overlook their own well-being during times of high productivity and stress. The entire team looks to the leader to set the tone and show how to manage the entire organization, but no one can take care of others, if they haven’t first helped themselves. In the session Shefa will discuss the importance of maintaining mental and physical health by committing to self-care strategies for leaders and how to create a culture of self-care in the workplace.

Just because one’s job title allows them to lead a team, it doesn’t make them inspirational. To become an inspirational leader one must have the ability to drive people to achieve their maximum level of performance and success and to also demonstrate qualities that are inspiring and that team members will follow willingly such as passion, purpose, listening and providing meaning to their role. Shefa will explore how true leaders inspire others through actions, how to build integrity and trust, ways to practice inclusion and how to truly listen to colleagues and team members.
