Maureen Gaffney, author of “Flourishing” speaks at WIB Conference

Did you know that only 20% of us are operating at our personal best? That 20% of us are languishing well below par?  And the rest are merely ‘ok’!

You may be one of the top 20% but if like me you suspect you might be just ok, then you will be sorry you missed Maureen Gaffney speak at the WIB conference earlier this year.

Clients of ours hear all know about the 5:1 ratio of positive to negative that we need to “flourish” . Yet when we invite them to carry out an exercise to raise their awareness, they are shocked at how many times they are negative or critical during the course of a day. Consider the impact this has on you, when someone criticises you or is negative and then consider the impact on the people in your organisation? And what would it be like if more of even some of you moved closer to flourishing?

Our “Being at your Personal Best” is for your organisation if you want your people to:

  • Discover how negativity detracts seriously from performance
  • Identify strategies to raise their positivity
  • Be more creative, energetic, flexible and resilient
  • Have a more positive impact on their team

I found the workshop really helped me to identify my priorities and provided sound, relevant advice on implementing positive changes.  I was able also to use the advice to assist a client who was struggling with changing behaviours in the workplace.  Well worth the time and effort to attend.
