Some people are more interested in themselves, rather than being interested in the person they’re listening to. They believe the route to success is to constantly talk – showing off their expertise or intelligence with their words and comments. The best way to establish rapport with people is to develop an attitude of curiosity. Be curious about other people, what they feel, how… [ 45 more words ] https://lesley-strachan-consulting-traini ng.com/…/are-you-…/

Did you know that brain researchers estimate that your unconscious data base outweighs the conscious on an order exceeding ten million to one. This data base is the source of your hidden, natural genius . In other words, a part of you is much smarter than you are. The wise people regularly consult that smarter part. MICHAEL J.

You don't have to let yourself be terrorised by other people's expectations of you. A quote by Sue Patton Thoele author of The courage to be yourself. It seems everyone wants a piece of you doesn't it? To be successful in achieving your goals and creating your desired lifestyle, you will have to get good at saying no to all of the people and distractions that would otherwise affect you. Successful people know how to say no without feeling guilty. What or who will you say no to this week? https://lesley-strachan-consulting-traini ng.com/…/just-say…/

Intention is a powerful force. Fueled by imagination, it brings to life the dreams of champion athletes and best-selling authors alike.
Tara Lipinski was just six years old when she decided to be a figure skater while watching the Olympics on TV. When her mother saw Tara standing on a chair and asked what she was doing, the future champion replied, “I’m standing on the podium at the Olympics receiving my gold medal.”
When you visualize and affirm your goal, you give it a dyna...mic power that sets the stage for success. As I explain in my Success Principles workshops and on-line courses, this focus trains your brain on what you need to make it happen.
At Southampton Solent University we energized our dreams after The Success Principles course by holding a “Come as you are party in the future” when you have achieved the goals you set for yourself. I encouraged students to bring props and to dress as their vision of themselves in ten years and we celebrated their success. Here’s a video of some of the students explaining who they are in their own future. https://www.youtube.com/watch…
The Success Principles is a powerful course for students aged 13+ so would you like me to help jump start your students dreams and ambitions?

The other day I ran a practical workshop which highlighted future job and skill shortages due to developments in technology. Delegates had the opportunity to debate how we could prepare learners for a world of work that doesn't exist yet. I asked the question "if you could start with a blank sheet of paper what would you differently in your school, college or university". 255 more words [ 253 more words ] https://lesley-strachan-consulting-traini ng.com/…/preparin…/

The other day I ran a practical workshop which highlighted future job and skill shortages due to developments in technology. Delegates had the opportunity to debate how we could prepare learners for a world of work that doesn't exist yet. I asked the question "if you could start with a blank sheet of paper what would you differently in your school, college or university". The feedback from the audience was fantastic so thank you to those who took part: It would be great to ha...ve a blank sheet of paper and start again with the curriculum and build in soft skills and connections with businesses because 87% of students benefit from a business supported curriculum Time and the pressures of delivering the curriculum get in the way of being able to be creative and do things differently Our children should be allowed to play and explore as Europeans do instead of educating them so young It would be great to have employers inside of education to promote role models and competencies - e.g. not just speed dating Bring Duke of Edinburgh Awards into Education Teachers and Careers Advisers should be allocated CPD time to go out and experience different work places and pass that experience onto their students Could use cross faculty courses to get more students experiencing new technology e.g. media students working with business students on projects Need to find ways of bringing AI, educational simulation games, games of life, data analysis etc into the classroom Need to find ways of fostering soft skills around the existing curriculum and why they are important - not just 'this is what you need explanations' Teachers need to experience new technology more and embrace it in the classroom as the students will expect it Bring work experience into the classroom as well as going outside of the school. So, what's your next move towards preparing your students? Can I help or inspire you?

Always a great chat with Darren Gamblen thanks for today.

I presented at The Enterprise Business Partnership conference and did a workshop which brought business and education together to prepare young people for a world of work that doesn't exist yet.

One of my passions is to use #business simulation games to improve #student #employability skills. In a recent paper I explain how this is done. The benefits of students being immersed in their learning is a joy to be part of. It changes the standard way of delivering learning to young people. https://journals.beds.ac.uk/…/inde…/j pd/article/view/315/488
