Personal Effectiveness: Leading yourself [PELAJ]

OVERVIEW

Many people want to get more out of their career, out of their time, out of life and encounter limitations in doing so. We ask ourselves: are we still efficient and effective enough? Are we in control? Are we still having fun? What about creativity? How do you deal with the overload of information, distractions and impulses? Do you feel that you always have to be your toes? Do we still have time for each other and for yourself? Will we get work done? Do you come home tired every day and do you feel less interested in doing things? Are you "being lived" or are you living your life?

The above questions have in common that they are about focus and attention. Your work and your private life demand a lot from you, which means that your focus and attention must be divided. Too many things that demand your attention distract you from the important things. As a result, you do not get to what is important enough, which in turn creates pressure. A vicious circle that costs more and more energy and yields less and less.

In this practical training we will find out how you can improve your Personal Leadership and increase your effectiveness, in a way that remains fun and gives you energy. Emphasis is on emotional intelligence (self-awareness, self-management, social awareness and social skills).
