What is Positive Thinking and Acting
Growth and development are a common thread in the life of a professional. You can see it in development plans, performance evaluations, coaching discussions, and team reflections.
We are accustomed to seeking solutions from problems: problem-focused thinking. In this training, we do things differently. You’ll learn to direct your attention towards opportunities and possibilities, drawing from insights in Positive Psychology. Science has shown that focusing on the positive unleashes new energy, making you and your surroundings feel more empowered.
Positive Psychology provides tools to help you work from a positive mindset and initiate change. This can make a difference for yourself, others, and your team.
Growth Mindset and Feedforward are central topics in the training. A Growth Mindset is the belief that there are no limits to development. With a Growth Mindset, you progress more quickly in your personal and professional journey. Feedforward is a conversational tool that emphasizes the future and possibilities. It’s used to empower and assist in the development of both yourself and your surroundings.
