Learning Objective:
To learn to establish, from the ground up, the image of participants in their own eyes in the most  positive light, build self-confidence from that image, establish a purpose, a strategy for achieving  that purpose, set way-point goals for measurement and protective strategies to cope with set-backs.

Target Audience:
Anyone, but particularly those who are working in an environment where success is determined  mostly by the person's own efforts.

Content:

Self image:
What have I achieved in my life so far? What are my successes and how are they  recorded? Writing a 'brag-book' and keeping a good-news file. What are my qualifications and  experience-base? What am I capable of? How important is visual & vocal image?

Purpose:
What am I here for? What's the overall purpose for my being here? How can I break  that down into manageable mini-purposes?

Goal-setting:
Using the 'SPECIFIC' model to set goals that are realistic and within your  capabilities and resources. Daily goal-setting -'what have I done today to move the business  forward?'. Prioritisation of effort. Support Structures - you may be working alone, but what  support can you create, and how? Networking and Mentoring. Family issues. Time & Stress  management (key points only). Celebrating successes no matter how small. The paradigm trap.  Using Vision statements. Vroom's 'expectancy' (valency) theory and how you can use it.
