6 STEPS - PURPOSE+PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

Step 1: Meeting/Needs assessment to identify and sync organizational and individual goals.

Step 2: Bring your A-Game - An emotion processing method designed to explore one’s emotional state to develop self-awareness - work through internal/external conflict - exercise curiosity - and work with emotional clarity. Development and constructive criticism can elicit strong emotions, therefore it is critical to make sure emotions are processed and regulated before productive transformation can occur.

Step 3: Discover your Genius-level Talent. Genius-level Talent is a collection of intellectual gifts capable of being converted into one elite-level skill. A strong and productive collective effort always includes self-aware team members who recognize where they are strong and vulnerable individually and collectively. Helping team members acknowledge their gifts improves confidence for the individual and allows the leader to better utilize their personnel's gifts.

Step 4: Validating your Genius-level Talent - Validating one’s giftedness reduces imposture syndrome - increases confidence and self-efficacy - and inspires self-mastery.

Step 5: Discover your Passion - What is the one thing you would do for the rest of your life to benefit the lives of others regardless of recognition - compensation - or reward? This powerful question helps people identify their most profound love affair- needed to live a life of intention and purpose - and improves the fortitude to execute unconditionally.

Step 6: Application - One of the final steps of the Purpose process is to work through how Purpose-centered Living impacts the person - their family - their community - and the industry they serve.

PURPOSE+THEMES

PURPOSE+LEADERSHIP

The best leaders recognize talents in others and give them the necessary support and accountability to convert their gifts into dependable skills. Leaders who understand and live in their purpose make for strong mentors to those with the ambition to produce elite-level service.

PURPOSE+WELLNESS

Having a purpose in life is considered an aspect of psychological and emotional well-being and has also been studied for its connection to physical health. Living a life of purpose means engaging in meaningful work you care about that helps others and allows you to exercise your most vital skills. This lifestyle typically equates to being well as long as there is balance. The more aware we are about what we love and where our gifts reside, the more influence we have over creating a healthy wellness state that contributes to productivity in our career and personal lives.

PURPOSE+PERFORMANCE

The best performers work with purpose and work for a purpose. Purpose reveals to us our Genius-level Talent. Our Genius-level Talent is a collection of heightened forms of intelligence that give us access to enhanced instincts - memory - and aptitude. People who consistently perform on a high level are fueled with intrinsic passion and an intense craving to master their gift. We are all gifted and possess the ability to be exceptional in our abilities. The goal is to recognize which of our gifts are limited and which are limitless and invest in the boundless gifts that will transform us into elite-level performers.

PURPOSE+SPIRITUALITY

EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE/MANAGEMENT

We all experience moments that produce emotions on a myriad of levels. Many of us experience emotions and never take the time to explore the knowledge - wisdom - understanding - and love hidden within. Thinking through our emotions and developing the ability to manage them makes us less combative with the past and present and promotes clarity.

The A-Game is an emotion-processing method that promotes emotional regulation and requires us to Acknowledge, Accept, and Appreciate our moments and emotions to experience internal holistic fluidity.

Purpose+DEI

Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion, as they relate to professional development, are often met with anxiety and resistance because they sometimes have a way of protecting one group while shaming and blaming another. My approach to DEI is inclusive in that we are all a part of the problem and can all contribute to the solution. We become the solution by setting the collective space on F.I.R.E. with Forgiveness, Intentionality, Radical Curiosity, and Empathy. These concepts are not revolutionary or innovative; they are everyday concepts that caring and considerate people use to make productive collaboration possible.

DEI programming can be highly effective. It can address serious topics in a casual and fun environment that encourages dialogue and transformation. People learn better when having fun...so let's have some fun exploring DEI.
