“The difference that makes the difference for your students”

OPTION 1: Get Motivated and Stay Motivated

This 1-Day ‘experience based learning’ workshop will have your students revved up and ready to conquer the world. It is a high energy interactive day which Brent can tailor to schools specific needs and wants. The flow of the day is based on Brent’s best selling book, “The World at Your Feet”, which outlines the 7 Keys to Success Formula

It is likely that your students currently have 3 MAJOR ISSUES:

1. STRESS. Being a teenager is an emotional time regardless, let alone all the added stress from exams. There is so much pressure at home for students to do well in year 11 & 12, and often that pressure leads to overwhelm, and students just shut down to avoid it.
2. POOR SELF MANAGEMENT. Many students also find self-management hard, and aren’t able to focus. Understanding what teenagers are thinking and feeling throughout this crucial time is the key.
3. THEY WON’T LISTEN TO YOU. They just need to knuckle down for the last 12 – 18 months. A solid effort now can easily increase their ATAR by 5-10 points. Of course, you try telling them that and they just don’t listen.

Sometimes they just need to hear it from someone different. Surveys have showed that most students would rather listen to advice from someone who is either young and relatable, experienced and successful, or entertaining as well as informative. Schools such as Scotts College, Marist Sisters, or Pymble Ladies College, to name a few, get Brent in when they want to give their students an edge. Isn’t it time your students got the same advantage to kick start their year?

The 7 Keys to Success will be the difference that makes the difference for your students as Brent outlines tried and tested methods for academic and life success.

The Empower U Experience will change your students’ life in the most amazing way imaginable. The production team who guarantee a great experience creates the ideal learning environment. With laser lights, giant speakers and video screens this event is a must for schools who are looking for a real once in a lifetime experience. Below is a detailed outline of what is covered over the event.

Foundations

We begin with a few fun games and activities to get the participants comfortable with the program and each other. Sharing a few simple concepts around comfort zones, teamwork and responsibility, setting the scene for more complex material. In this section, we explain how comfort zones, though initially designed to protect us, can be dangerous by ruling our lives and limiting our self-belief. Also, we discuss the essential elements to teamwork and why it is vital to success as well as the importance of taking responsibility and it’s direct relation to success.

Belief Systems

This section is about recognising what beliefs are and why they are important. We address how beliefs are formed and the way in which we, as human beings can either hold onto them or let them go. Participants come to realize that we may have some beliefs that don’t serve us anymore. By building strong and self-empowering beliefs and choosing to recognise what beliefs serve us and what don’t, students learn that they can take control and ownership of their outcomes, actions, and decisions. Some points we cover on Belief Systems include:

• How an individual’s personality is formed
• The different types of beliefs we can have and where they come from
• How we can break down old negative beliefs and how to install new, positive and empowering beliefs to set you up for success in life.

Goals

This is certainly one of the more tangible sections of the program and one that is taken very seriously. We go through a lot of powerful goal setting techniques but also the science behind how the techniques actually work. This section has been found to be extremely valuable to the participants that are engaged in the program, as it requires a lot more focus and input. The major points we cover on Goals are:

• Why true goal setting isn’t taught at school and the secret behind this amazing skill
• Why all successful people state that goals are the fundamental groundwork to anyone achieving success
• The 7 secret steps to goal setting and the SMART System
• How to maintain focus, certainty and direction with your goals when times are tough and things can seem to be overwhelming

Career Guidance

This section ties in everything taught over the weekend to demonstrate how each skill can be implemented in the selection of and action within their career choice. We also share some key ideas and principles about mindset and attitude with regards to careers including:

• The changing economic climate and how you can take advantage of it
• The importance of modelling when pursuing a career and how to do it
• The 6 steps to career success and reaching the top of any career fast

Breaking Barriers

This process is certainly one of the highlights of the program and something that we take very seriously. It is based around the idea that a wooden board represents all of the negative things or experiences that have/are affecting you and all of the things that you want to be, do and have. One side is negative the other being positive. The key to the board break’s emotional impact is the leverage that we create leading up to the process. This way the participant is so emotionally connected to what’s on the board as opposed to it being just a physical challenge. The major points we cover are:

• How to identify any limiting beliefs and discover what beliefs you need to have to achieve the success you want
• How to tap into your inner strength and break through anything that may be holding you back

The participants will walk away from the Empower U Experience with two things: an absolute certainty and belief within themselves that they can achieve anything and the tools and strategies to take that belief and take immediate action as they are now equipped to achieve what it is they want.
