Achieve results on healthy terms and ditch perfectionism
Learn a proven method to reach your goals without overworking
Are you often doubting if you’re good enough?
Or, striving to improve without the process raising your confidence?
Are your present commitments eating into your rest and playtime?
Is pausing to celebrate your achievement hard as there is always more to do?
Or, perhaps you’re at risk of making others feel this way?
High standards are okay when they help us do well and be well.
This masterclass will help you develop vital leadership and management skills and save time.
The high cost of perfectionism – and why you should stop paying it
Perfectionism gets a lot of positive reinforcement in our culture and the workplace. For many, it is the route to achievement, status and high competence. But there is also a serious hidden cost: chronic stress, health problems, anxiety, and a higher risk of depression. Perfectionism can fuel a toxic culture at work. It costs energy and time you could be spending in far better ways. Perhaps the greatest cost of perfectionism is how it erodes relationships. From the workplace to family and friends, perfectionism is essentially toxic.
Take the first step towards discovering what it may be like to work with more joy, calm and a relaxed body and mind while delivering excellent results. This important masterclass is a personal development must and a worthy investment in your management and leadership skills!
“I found the workshop and her new tools transformationary. Magdalena was appropriately challenging in a calm yet motivational way. She has wonderful skills and a natural art at helping you get the best results for yourself. I cannot wait to work with her again. Plus her book is a must read!”
Claire Harding, past workshop attendee.
Beat Your Inner Perfectionist: what to expect
Our practical approach
We meet over two days to give you the opportunity to practice what you learn. Each 4-hour workshop helps you:
- Establish your starting point and a specific area where you will apply your learning.
- Immerse yourself in key learning (theory and research) to have a sound foundation.
- Practice and learn the skills to excel on healthy terms.
There will be practical exercises to experiment with in your life and at work between day 1 and day 2. All delegates receive:
- A free seat at a Grid Clinic of your choice (£90 value) – these are online, small-group coaching sessions where you can benefit from further coaching from Magdalena.
- PDFs of the presentations.
- Supporting worksheets to make positive change.
Agenda
Day 1: We begin by unpacking the mechanics of perfectionism, including its underlying neurobiology and psychological mechanisms, so you understand them and can take charge of them. You will understand where your tendencies come from and be able to decide where and how you want things to change.
Day 2: We explore and work with the inner critic who uses the perfectionist brain circuits to drive overwork and hold impossibly high standards. The day will focus on practical and constructive ways to harness the inner critic as an ally.
Using a series of powerful exercises and small group fun activities and discussions, you will also explore your best self, learn to appreciate what works for healthy and more rewarding relationships, and how to avoid the paralysis of perfectionism to feel more creative and resourceful.
