Defined by Your AWE-THENTIC Brand
 

An Awe-thentic Brand™ is a true representation of who you are from the inside out. You possess a keen sense of ‘self’ as a whole and complete person. This cmes through in every detail of how you show up. You know yourself well and are totally comfortable in your own skin. You exude confidence.
by Dorothy Lazovik



Against the Tide
 
Have you ever been caught in a strong current?You're happily going along and suddenly are pulled off course – in a direction you don't want to g.Initially you're unconcerned - after all you're a strong swimmer. You swim faster – kick harder. As you see yourself drifting further from shore, panic sets in.You start to focus on your fatigue. You notice the heaviness in your rms. Your kicking becomes frantic as you realize that you might not make it. Fear overwhelms you. 
by Robin Lee Kennedy

Leaders Take Real Control
 

Leaders lose the capacity for authentic, creative and measured responses by allowing their buttons to be pushed.  By learning how to be in the moment, leaders and others take control and remain calm and centred in challenging situations and with difficult people.

beyond reason by Roger Fisher & Daniel Shapiro
 

It takes much longer to read a book when you keep stopping to think about how differently you would have handled a particular situation if you only had known about the tools discussed in this book. beyond reason Using Emotions as You Negotiate is written by Roger Fisher, the co-author of Getting to Yes and the director of the Harvard Negotiation Project and Daniel Shaprio, the associate director of the Harvard Negotiation Project. These two gentlemen have written a most thought provoking book.
