About this Event
No matter how passionate we are as professionals, there are bound to be times that we feel stuck. Things don’t seem to be working as well as they used to, we have trouble seeing the bigger picture and we feel like we are repeating ourselves.
Our thinking and our actions are based on hidden assumptions. We do things a certain way because we think that’s how they are supposed to be done and because it is how we have always done them. We don’t realise the extent to which our reality is the product of our thinking. When we become aware of the assumptions underlying our thinking, we become capable of reshaping our reality. This is exactly what we will do during the workshop. By practicing a technique called reframing you will learn how to shed light on the hidden assumptions you carry with you and you will learn to experiment with a radically different set of assumptions. As a result, your worldview will tilt, and solutions might turn out to be much simpler than you thought.
During this workshop:
- You will gain insight into your hidden assumptions about your work, organisation and sector.
- You will learn to use the reframing technique
- You will learn how to break free from ingrained patterns
- You will receive tools to help you win back your autonomy
- You will develop the confidence to step into the unknown and feel more at home there
