Peter Senge in his book The 5Th Discipline points
out to us that our only real competitive advantage is the
people we employ - and their associated activated potential.
To benefit from their untapped potential, we have to create
and adopt new ways of training, directing, leading and supporting.
We
are multi-dimensional beings. By developing on only one
dimension (Rational knowing/IQ:10%-20%) and neglecting the
others (Tactile, emotional, intuitive and body: 80%-90%), we
are losing out on benefiting from our FULL potential.
People react, respond and perform, based upon personal reference and
recollection to many facets of their stored memories. We
cannot separate emotion or attitudes from knowledge and skill
in our day to day activities.
Where ever we use our rational knowledge, we also have
associated emotions, beliefs, values, attitudes and
perspectives that are deeply interwoven. If we expect optimal
performance, self leadership, and productivity from our teams, we have to
develop, empower and coach them on all dimensions.
If
we continue to only address the rational level, and ignore the
others, imbalances will occur. Because we are holistic, all
dimensions are inter-dependent and inter-related. Unbalanced development
severely restricts our ability to perform and inter-relate at
our peak.
The dimensions we need to address are: Emotional,
Physiological, Mental and Intuitive /Spiritual. They ALL
interact and directly influence each other. They influence and
control all levels of knowledge, skill, aptitudes, attitudes,
abilities, performance levels and productivity.
Many people have parts of themselves locked-away/frozen
through life’s encounters. And it is with these “weak links”,
and perspectives, that they “TRY” to “be the best that they can
be”. Always “trying” – never fully AUTHENTIC. Never fully empowered.
Can we really expect people to perform exceptionally, when we
do not empower and develop them on all levels? With staff being your only real competitive advantage –
we believe that we should be developing people concurrently on
every level: Thinking, feeling and acting.
Developing and coaching them into fully authentic people.
LifeMasters International empowerment programs apply Holistic Psychosynthetic Integrative design to develop, support
and coach people on all levels - that is their heads AND their hearts -
to create a more connected, cohesive, interrelated complete
whole.
This approach empowers people to be able to positively
respond from this moment - NOW – without the influence
of excess baggage from the past.
We
facilitate the most powerful programmes available today based
upon Appreciative Inquiry and Action Learning principles. This
includes interactive sessions, discussions, exercises,
role-plays and insightful games including high voltage
leadership coaching, life coaching and Emotionetics.

Imagine how far, and fast, you can fly,
not having any baggage.
Just imagine how great you could be. So what’s holding YOU back?
Cognitive skills are only 10%-20% of the game of Life and
Business; the rest of your personal power resides in your
E-Motional flexibility and intelligence and your AQ. Your
Adversity intelligence or programming!
