“Stop believing everything you think,” Cy Wakeman.
Do you ever find yourself steeped in conversations or situations that feel like they are eating away at your most valued commodity – TIME? That innate sense that you could be doing something better with your time but someone else is requiring your attention, at the wrong moment, and even worse, for inadequate reasons?
Cy Wakeman is a drama researcher, global thought-leader, and New York Times best-selling author who is recognized for cultivating a counter-intuitive, reality-based approach to leadership. And according to Cy’s research, employees spend nearly 2.5 hours per day in Drama. That is, unnecessary activity that is only feeding one’s fears, doubts, and insecurities rather than the company mission and vision.
With all this wasted time in the workplace, what would happen if team members learn how to channel this misguided energy into real results?
On Tuesday August 24th, we welcomed Cy Wakeman to the stage for a live interview on the Inside Out Leadership Show with Robb Holman to meet this international leader and philosopher and learn how she helps design mental processes that will maximize your leadership and team potential.
