MEGA SESSION The Mediocrity Paradox: Overcoming Procrastination, Perfection and Misplaced Priorities
You see yourself as a rising leader but the thought of doing what it takes to get that coveted next opportunity drains your energy. You want to have it all but you have been “working your plan” to no avail. You want your plan to be perfectly timed, crafted and executed. Besides, that's what exceptional performers do, right? This session will help you:
· Identify and eliminate behaviors – and the stories created to justify them – that feed procrastination.
· Understand how to leverage excellence in order to overcome paralyzing perfection.
· Develop and commit to priorities that align with what your organization needs and values.
· Getting comfortable with effectively saying “no” in order to say “yes” to the pursuits that shift you away from mediocrity.
· Create a personal development plan that supports exceptional performance.
