A starting point to this series of dialogues on insanity, where we will be analyzing R. D. Laings brilliant book "Knots". With Bárbara Godoy We aim to explore the lived experiences on irregular perceptions of reality with an open mind. Each Saturday includes: a live dialogue between Prof. Ernesto Spinelli and an International Existential Therapist; a moment to share your thoughts and feelings with the teachers; and a final integration facilitated by Bárbara Godoy. This series of ten dialogues set out to explore the multifaceted dimentions and complexities associated with Existential Therapies. It attempts to engage with various interpretations of insanity through the lens of patients often painful, confounding, and deeply unsettling life experiences. Knots - between Prof. Ernesto Spinelli and Bárbara Godoy “As a starting point to this series of dialogues on insanity; I wanted to return to R. D. Laings brilliant book which was originally published in 1970. Knots consists of a series of dialogue-scenarios that can be read as poems or brief plays, each demonstrating the intricacies and insanities of human relationships. I would like to expand on Laings insights by exploring the professional relationship between therapist and client as yet another human relationship that, while constantly expanding (and expounding on) its intricacies, might do well to pay more attention to its accompanying insanities.” Prof. Ernesto Spinelli. Prof. Ernesto Spinelli was Chair of the Society for Existential Analysis between 1993 and 1999 and is a Life Member of the Society.

Polarization, or the “polarized mind,” is a fixation on one view, causing widespread destructiveness. It needs presence and love to address. We aim to explore the lived experiences on irregular perceptions of reality with an open mind. Each Saturday includes: a live dialogue between Prof. Ernesto Spinelli and an International Existential Therapist; a moment to share your thoughts and feelings with the teachers; and a final integration facilitated by Bárbara Godoy. This series of ten dialogues set out to explore the multifaceted dimentions and complexities associated with Existential Therapies. It attempts to engage with various interpretations of insanity through the lens of patients often painful, confounding, and deeply unsettling life experiences. Polarisation - between Prof. Ernesto Spinelli and Prof. Kirk Schneider “I view polarization or that which I call the “polarized mind” as the fixation on a single point of view to the utter exclusion of competing points of view, and I see it as a core dimension of human destructiveness both individually and collectively. Arguably, polarization or the polarized mind is responsible for more devaluation and abuse than any other general psychological dimension, and it crosses cultures, parties, disciplines and so-called diagnosed and undiagnosed populations. In fact it is the undiagnosed populations—polarized cultural, political, and religious leaders and their followers–who have arguably caused the most human destructiveness by far, over those whom we conventionally termed the diagnosed The polarized mind may be partly dispositional but appears to be largely fear-driven and requires abiding presence and love to address it. We are in a race against time to avail people to these “nutrients.” Prof. Kirk Schneider. Prof. Kirk J.

Own Your Success is delighted to bring you the 'Bitesize Masterclass' with Sophie Chapman. Not everyone has the flexibility to step away from the office for in-person events or dedicate extended periods from their packed schedules for full or half-day sessions. So we've put together our 'Bitesize Masterclasses' to help assistants develop and learn from professionals such as Sophie - shorter sessions, same big impact!   Bitesize Masterclass with Sophie Chapman Sophie Chapman EA to Steven Bartlett  Although Sophie initially aspired to be a talent agent, she swiftly realised that her career passions lay within the administrative/operational aspects of working life. Following her graduation in Entertainment Management from LIPA in 2008, she gained extensive work experience across renowned entities such as Sony BMG and Sky One, operating within the spheres of TV, music, radio, and the events industry. Her pivotal entry into a PA role came while supporting musician Eliza Doolittle. After five years, Sophie opted to move home to Liverpool and accept a contract supporting Sir Dave Brailsford of Team Sky. Once complete, Sophie received an offer for a position based in the US with an A-list musician. However, her journey led her to discover her "forever role", providing support to Steven Bartlett. Steven, the Founder and former Group CEO of Social Chain, is a multifaceted individual—a published author, podcaster, entrepreneur, and presently, the youngest-ever Dragon on BBC's Dragon's Den. Sophie has been instrumental as Steven's Executive Assistant, operating on a global scale, in both private and corporate realms for six years.  Kate Wood Masterclass Facilitator  Kate will aid the facilitation of this Bitesize Masterclass, ensuring that crucial topics are covered while prioritising an environment where every participant feels acknowledged, valued, and heard throughout the session.

After 25 years working across the board in blue-chip, non-profit and civil service organisations she now provides support to businesses looking to evolve and become great places for people to work in and with. Having worked with a wide variety of clients from school-age students to senior executives, she has been designing and running workshops, seminars and classes in person or via web events since she left long commutes and corporate roles behind in 2014 when she created her first two businesses. Her passion is improving working relationships between roles and functions and supporting people to discover their best selves at work. She does this in the automotive industry, financial services, medical teams, charities, global media, retail, education systems and the arts.

An interactive workshop experience with personal stylist Emma Shoe, sharing her expertise on how to create a wardrobe you'll truly treasure! How To Create A Wardrobe To Treasure............ Do you have a wardrobe full of clothes that you don't love? Do you have lots of things hanging in your wardrobe you never or rarely wear? Do you mostly default to the same few outfits all the time? Thinking you'd like to have less stuff, but value what you do have more? Keen to discover more planet friendly ways to update your wardrobe? This group styling experience is for you if you answered yes to any of these questions. During the workshop, we will share wardrobe treasures, discuss personal style, look at shape and colour and more sustainable ways to create your wardrobe. You'll get the opportunity to 'play' with creating outfits and experiment with new looks for your own wardrobe. The practical and tangible outcomes you'll experience from this workshop include: How to edit what's in your wardrobe. Emma's approach to eliminate regretful shopping mistakes and binge buying. The flat-lay method to create outfits and plan looks. How to create your wardrobe of treasure. Why and how to embrace the circular fashion model. Access to Emma's black book of favourite pre-loved treasure troves. About Emma: Emma (Shoe) Reed is the founder of Styling You Well. She is a former shoe designer turned personal stylist and image consultant. She has over twelve years expertise styling women, transforming confidence and mindset to elevate professional presence. Emma's clients are entrepreneurs, creatives and leaders, professional women dealing with major life changes or transitioning from experiences like the menopause, divorce, illness, promotion, career change or returning to work post maternity leave. Kind words... "Emma is a fantastic personal stylist. She put items together that I never would have thought of myself. This is her unique gift. She has great knowledge of body shapes and made suggestions that were really flattering. She is also a master at accessorising. I would highly recommend her if you need some styling support." "I took the opportunity in lock-down to take a hard look at my personal style - or perhaps lack of personal style is a more appropriate phrase! Having left corporate life behind a few years ago, I felt I knew how to dress smartly and I LOVE my jeans and gold trainers but I knew that there had to be something stylish yet relaxed that looked AND felt great...I just couldn't seem to find it alone. Cue Emma. I'd attended one of her Capsule Wardrobe Styling sessions in Hampton which opened my eyes to the possibility of having a small but hard-working wardrobe with the right accessories to make it feel fresh. So, I booked in for Emma's virtual styling session which was a revelation! I quickly understood why I didn't feel (or look) great in certain pieces and which styles and colours really work/don't work for my body shape and skin-tone. I also realised that I'd been stuck in a colour rut for quite some time. It was time to say good-bye to black. It also became obvious during the session that there were giant gaps in my wardrobe - mostly due to my overly-enthusiastic Marie Kondo-style clear outs! My interest in shopping for clothes has been renewed - I feel like I have a better idea of what I should be looking for which makes it all so much easier and more fun. I'm also feeling much braver with colour. I can't wait to take Emma shopping with me in real life. She knows her stuff and she's also great fun to be around." "Emma was such a joy to help me go through my wardrobe and get me interested in clothes again. She was kind, honest, practical and had a very stylish take on my limited wardrobe. I trusted her judgement implicitly and was buzzing after our session. Highly recommend Emma for her professionalism and empathy plus the fabulous outfits."

What Are the Key Skills Learned from Executive Development Training One of the first sets of vital skills for self-leadership you’ll learn is the ability to stop, step back, and reflect on the things that trigger us to react. When we react, we’re being controlled by the trigger. Another skill we’ll help instill is to consider intention. Intention is important to us, such as our values and what we’re trying to achieve. When you become intentional, you start to live a life of choice. Self-leadership and executive development are a journey. The more self-leadership we attain, the more successful we’ll become. The more successful we become, the more self-leadership we need. Here are some additional critical skills you’ll learn from our self-leadership training: Self-Awareness – It’s vital to hone your ability to see yourself as clearly as you are. This skill takes dedication, introspection, and mindfulness. Also, a dose of self-awareness helps with self-control, self-confidence, and feelings of validation. Overall, you should be open to critique and accountability. Goal Setting – A good self-leader must be proactive in not only identifying their goals but how to reach those goals in a manageable manner. Our executive development training will teach you how to break down a larger goal into more attainable steps to avoid burnout while helping you celebrate smaller milestones. Self-Motivation – A classic way to handle self-motivation is to divide long-term goals into smaller, more attainable ones. This optimization means recognising what about the goal that appeals to you, then forming a strategy that aligns with your strengths and values toward that goal. Constructive Thought Patterns – Through our leadership skills and self-improvement course, you’ll be able to review your performance and assess your intentions and effectiveness while providing an opportunity to ensure your strategies are geared towards success. This is done by focusing on improving strengths and the mental imagery of yourself that recognizes your capacity to grow, develop, and change. Self-leadership training teaches you to see yourself as having the ability to create, improvise, innovate, and adapt. OUR LIVE WORKSHOPS ARE BACK What’s Covered in Our Executive Development?
