Self-Leadership in Action (Online)

Everyone is a leader in some sense of the term, as everyone exerts influence on others. However, leaders are not born. They are made through values, virtues, principles, and character. This course will set you up for your personal leadership journey by providing you the fundamentals of exceptional self-leadership and a proven toolkit for everyday application. It consists of 6 online sessions starting with a free introductory class, an interactive online community, and a group coaching session for post-completion support.

We are all the main actors in our Hero’s journey. It is through life’s challenges that we experience transformation. The look in the mirror reminds us that we still have work to do. Self-Leadership is about taking radical responsibility, being introspective, and getting a better understanding of our lessons. If you lead your life well, you can practically achieve everything in your potential.

Your Self-Leadership journey begins with raising awareness about where are you standing in life. What are your strengths and weaknesses, and where is the potential for change. With refined clarity, we look into the self-leader’s mindset that sets you up for lifelong learning and growth towards your future self. How is your future self different from your present self? What are the values, vision, and goals that align you with your life’s purpose? The self-leader’s skillset equips you with the habits, tools, and routines to integrate your learning agenda into the rhythm of your daily activities.

By the end of the course, you have developed your personal vision statement, an action plan for the next 90 days and set yourself up for success on your Hero’s journey.

In the course you will learn practical strategies for how to:

• Increase your self-awareness to better understand yourself (and others) so that you make better decisions and establish your individuality
• Identify the core needs behind your wants and desires so that you understand what drives your behavior and how to empower yourself
• Develop a growth mindset for life-long learning so that you embrace new challenges and reach higher goals
• Meet your future self and transform your past so that you have a long-term vision and make favorable choices in the present
• Infuse your life with purpose so that you stay in the flow and be more resilient
• Build powerful routines and success habits for greater focus and impact so that you feel more productive and have more time to relax
• Create your personal vision statement and SMARTER goals
• Setup a 90 Day Action Plan to stay on target and accomplish your purpose

How is the course structured

Self-Leadership in Action is an in-person online course structured in 6 modules. The weekly sessions are hosted via video conferencing and require active participation. You are requested to complete small assignments between the sessions that help you create personal growth and development habits. Plan to spend 2-3 hours per week all together over the 6 weeks. In addition, we have a moderated online community for the course to ask questions, share ideas, and receive support. After completion, we offer to meet again in small group coaching sessions to further deepen and implement what you have learned and set as your goals.
