Description

Life shows that on the long-run personality makes the difference to be successful both in business and in your private life. That is why having a better understanding about yourself and managing your personal resources mindfully is crucial. In this module, we focus on the three elements Personality & Self Awareness, Mindset, and Body Resources. By doing so, we enable you with knowledge, and self-experience to high perform on the long run.

The Liechtenstein Academy Foundation elaborated a unique offer together with external lecturers that cover the following main topics:

1) Personality & Self-Awareness: At the very start of the self-awareness journey, we start with an Insights Discovery Profile that helps you to understand your preferences, strengths and the value they bring to you and your surroundings.
2) Purpose & Mindset: Why is purpose and mindset so crucial for success in professional and personal life?
3) Body Resources: Are you aware of the power that lays within a conscious management of your body resources?

Learning Outcomes

1) Personality & Self-Awareness:
Self-awareness is key for a successful life. A better understanding of others and ourselves helps us to understand the impact of our personality on others better. Likewise, it enables us to grow lasting relationships and to optimize our communication with others. Dr. Georg Winder, expert in organizational development has several years of experience in learning and organizational development functions.
2) Purpose & Mindset:
Create awareness of the impact of purpose and mindset for your life. Main topics: Positive Psychology, Resilience, Mindfulness. Sybille Mäder, coach and leadership specialist with huge business experience in the international financial industry.

3) Body Resources:
Experience and understand the power of your body resources and the importance of a balanced profile between tension and recovery. Learn about your individual stress profile (you will get a 72 hours heart rate variability profile) and find out how you can positively influence your well-being. Dirk Frey, trainer, coach and CHM project manager at the Swiss-based Fit im Job AG finds the strength to face the challenges of today's working life in the depths of meditation. His fortes are optimizing stress regulation and strengthening resilience.
