Step off the hamster wheel of daily business—and into the dojo.


The Leadership Dojo is not another seminar or management workshop.

In the spirit of the traditional Japanese training hall, it is a practice ground—a space for anyone who is managing or leading to sharpen their self-awareness, focus their minds and explore the art of leading people so they have

· More genuine confidence and resilience

· Clarity of direction, action and who you are at your best

· Commitment to taking action on themselves and their business outcomes

For half a day, you will train as a leader trains: through reflection, insightful discussion and genuine connection.

All profits from the event will be distributed to local charities (attendees will choose which ones)



The subject

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


"If everything is a priority, then nothing is a priority." Frank Sonnenburg


In this, the third dojo we are going to explore personal organisation. This isn't a diary or time management tips session.

We are going to the heart of the organisation challenge; how we think about our workload, our priorities and our ability to get stuff done

We tend to think we can get more done than we actually can, at least over the short term.

But much of this is down to our lack of organisation around critical outcomes.

In the dojo we will explore how to become the kind of person who delivers without drowning.

  • the hidden forces influencing your choice of priorities
  • why the woodcutters rule is the key to powerful execution
  • how to harness the power of commitment to maintain focus and intensity

When you have these three things nailed choosing a time management system whether it be a filofax or Slack and creating a system that works for you is easy.


What Awaits You in the Dojo

1. The Demonstration — Learning from a Master in Motion

After breakfast, the session will be opened by a local business owner who will speak with honesty about the realities of being a business owner, the highs, the lows and the leadership moments that really mattered in thier journey.

2. The Coaching Kata — Your Guided Practice Session

Next, you’ll take part in a short, high-impact coaching session—your “kata.” In this session, we will be exploring how to plan in uncertainty using five simple thought models.

3. The Circle — Dialogue

We’ll close with a round-table discussion in the spirit of kaizen—continuous improvement.

You'll talk with your fellow attendees, sharing experiences and insights as you coach each other. This will contribute to a collective refinement of planning practice.

This is where the wisdom of peers becomes the fuel for personal mastery.


Why Attend

In the dojo, progress is measured not in words, but in energy. This experience is designed for leaders at all levels who are:
- Hungry for new ways to inspire and develop their people
- Ready to step out of “management mode” and into leadership practice
- Open to learning through experience, reflection, and communit

Spaces are limited to ensure every participant has time to train and reflect. Bring your curiosity, your challenges, and your commitment to growth. Leave with renewed clarity, confidence, and the tools to lead with calm strength.
