Stale ways of thinking and well-worn patterns of behavior can sap energy and inhibit career success. Dr. Andrew Shatté teaches that you can successfully train your mind to engage in new ways of thinking, which will allow you to uncover fresh perspectives and come up with new solutions.
More than 30 years of research shows that it is our Thinking Styles--habits of thinking we develop about ourselves, our world and our future--that directly affect how we respond to the challenges and opportunities that come our way. These Thinking Styles can often lead us away from the success we work so hard to achieve, sapping our resilience both at work and at home. Discover how to jump on opportunities and reignite your passion at work, breaking free of old habits and developing a genuine appetite for change.
In this highly interactive, skills-based program, you’ll learn how to capitalize on your existing resilience strengths and bolster any areas of weakness. You will identify your own Thinking Styles and how they may be helping and hurting your performance. And you will learn a series of practical skills that will help you think more flexibly–-and more accurately--in order to become more resilient and successful.
