Declaring Breakdowns : Create A Future That You Want
Introduction
This program is for anyone who wants to take care of what he or she cares for. What you may care for may be in the domain of your personal life, or in the domain of your work life.
What is of importance is that you first know what you (as an individual, as a member of a team or an organization) care for, and then take care of what you care for. In my coaching work, there is a wide repertoire of examples that I could use, but I have intentionally brought in some personal examples shared by my executive coachees, because in that point of time, this is what my coachees cared for, and was of concern to them. The distinctions remain the same, irrespective of the domain of your life. It is important for you to acknowledge that you are at the source of your personal life and your work/professional life. This program is about you powerfully creating a future that matters—to you!
This program is for you if you are really committed to designing a future of your choice. This program is not for you if you are committed to your excuses.
