BUILDING
POWERFUL TEAMS, EXCEPTIONAL LEADERS
& ROBUST RELATIONSHIPS
Every
business is a collection of resources, processes and relationships.
Without effective relationships you can't have an effective
business.
Powerful
leadership is about relationships
Effective teamworking is about relationships
Winning orders and keeping customers is about relationships
Your
life is all
about relationships!
How
do you get the "energy" going
in your teams, your family, your life?
How do you build & sustain passion and commitment in all
your relationships?
How do you unleash the talents you have within your people?
Through
each thought you have, each conversation you
share with and every action you take.
Active - you
ARE the relationship!
Both
the successes and set backs in your life have a long tail. What
you get in life is a mirror of what you think, what you say
and how you act.
Things
happen gradually and then suddenly
The
Titanic sank because of many
failed, superficial, dishonest, entrenched or missing conversations.
The relationships were not authentic enough to prevent reckless
acts that cost the ship. The same could be true in your business
and your home! What you get in life is dependent on every
thought, every conversation
and
every
action you
take
- be
authentic,
be
adventurous, be courageous, 100% the real deal!
Active exists
to challenge you -
through each thought you have, each conversation
you contribute
to
and every action you take. It's the way you live on your
'journey through life' that defines who you are and what
impact you have.
As
my wife, who is a runner reminds me..."The will to win
doesn't determine the champion. On the start line, everyone
has the
will to
win.
Rather it's
the
will to train to win; the commitment; the discipline; the
courage to act when the race day is far off that defines
the champion."
Active exists
to keep you challenging -
Don't rent out your life, or chance to luck your future. Engage!
Active is
an adventure. Active is
a way of building authentic relationships, built and
sustained by trust and courage.
Created and enriched by powerful, courageous conversations.
By using a simple but powerful idea, Active will
work with you to place adventure, courage and authenticity
at the heart of everything you do with the rest of your
life.
All
too often, you don't get the real deal from people. You get
a role played out. An entrenched, unchallenged view. Or you
get what they think you want to hear. They act how they think
you
expect them to act. You accept it, even though
deep inside you know it's not dealing with the real issue.
You do this because most of the time, you do exactly the same
to
others!
People
are reluctant to engage fully with an
issue
or challenge the
way things are. We fear the consequences, the retribution,
the
exposure
that comes with taking a risk and saying what we really feel.
It's easier and safer to run with the herd, let sleeping
dogs lie, to keep busy pretending not to know that things aren't
quite right!
Too
busy 'doing' pretending not to know what is really going
on!
However,
the true cost of ducking the issue, letting things lie, keeping
your head down is huge. Who pays? everyone. Your customers
suffer,
your business suffers, your colleagues suffer, but most important
of all, your family really pays the bill.
They
pay it through your stress, the hours you work, your insecurity,
your
lethargy at home, your non communication or your lack of
enthusiasm for giving of yourself to them.
Your
family's happiness is not measured by great ski
holidays
or expensive cars. They may be fun, they may be memorable,
but they are no substitute for your love and time. Your relationships
at home are not sustained by the wealth and possessions that
your salary provides. Your
family's
happiness
is built upon your attitude and your attention to them.
It's
about being there at tea time and making time for personal
chats and everyday
acts of
kindness. Mostly it's about the time and attention you
give to them and the effort you make to be attentive to their
world. If you're exhausted, slumped watching telly every night,
with
your
children lost to the play station or on the streets -
where's the relationship? Where's your life going? What is
the message
you are sending
to your family? What kind of role model are you? Every
second counts!
Not
being real, not tackling our toughest challenges is not a option
if you don't want the ones you love to pay the real bill! As the
advert says "Remember who you really work for!"
The
price of failed or missing conversations is high and everyone
pays it in the end!
Active works
with organisations to build a culture of adventure. A place
where challenging conversations thrive, where judgemental reactions
are suspended and exploring to understand prevails. A culture
where attentive thinking is championed, where trust and respect
are
the foundations
of personal courage and commitment to act. It's all about what
you believe, the way you use your brain to think, how authentic
your conversations are, what you choose to share and engage
with and what 'true' messages you transmit each time you interact.
You are always on show, always strengthening, ignoring or damaging
each and every relationship. Every second counts!

Your
big Adventure
You have 86400 seconds to spend today, then they are gone for ever.
How
much of this time will you be 100% focused, present and committed?
How
often are you powerfully engaged - all of you? How often are
you just going through the motions?
Life's
a big adventure
- all the seconds you have spent on your life's journey. The
experiences, the relationships, the
highs,
the lows, the loves, the learning all bring you to this point.
Your past combines to make who you are now. But it will
always be your past!
You
are unique,
however your potential to grow and change is constrained
by the self beliefs you have created in your head. Not only
this, but your beliefs limit or liberate the potential of all
those
you
interact
with both at work and
home! your inner voice is powerful and ever present, don't
ignore it, harness it, direct it, hone it. It will serve you
and the people you care for well.
Active - you ARE the
relationship!
Active has
a clear message, we work with individuals, teams and leaders
to create a powerful focus on the future. Centred around
relationships, communication and clear thinking strategies,
we will help you
take the best of your potential and accelerate it, both as
individuals and teams.
You
got here one thought, one action, one conversation at a time.
You can get to where you want to, one thought, one action,
one conversation at a time. Active is
an attitude that requires you to tune in, switch on, challenge
your own thinking and take action - it's an adventurous way
of approaching life, demanding a more authentic commitment
from you to strengthen your relationships and leverage your
performance. It's challenging, fun and unbelievably empowering.
Active is
about action.
The
challenge you face is to be the real you, 100% you.
No fakes or double lives, no hiding behind roles, no justifications
for disappointments, no martyrdom, just authentic you. No
more "if only..", no more "I'll try.." or "I
know I should.." No
more seeking permission or awaiting rescue, time to be Active. We
don't always control what happens to us, but you always have
a choice about how you respond. You choose where you
go next with your life. You decide what you will
accept
from
yourself
and others,
what wounds you inflict when you are emotional and reactive,
what joys you create when you are attentive and generous
- that's your adventure,
your choice - make it an Active choice.
Make
the most of now, every second counts. You
may not get another 86400! There may be no tomorrow, if not
for you
then for
the person you care about but have neglected or
the business you have coasted in rather than driven. If you
are just experiencing the inevitable, ask your self why are
you there, what value are you adding?
Active if
your just experiencing the inevitable, how
are you contributing to a more fulfilling future?
Every
action you take, every conversation you have, every result
you get will begin
as a thought inside your head and a conversation with yourself.
Don't sleepwalk your way through the years in the "if
only club". Be powerful, be adventurous, be Active. How
you relate to your
world depends
upon how you relate to yourself, what you accept of yourself
and demand from yourself - it's all in your head.
One
rotting fruit will affect the whole barrel! You are a role
model for everyone you come into contact with. You are the
message, take care about your impressions on others. You
affect the way people feel about you, about themselves, about
their
situation,
about the task. You do that one action at a time, every second
counts!
Active you
ARE the message!
The
way you think, the questions you ask of yourself, the attention
you give to people,the authenticity you put into your relationships;
all determine the
quality and
results you get. You have impact on everyone you touch, make
sure it's positive.
If
your days are filled with tasks, but empty of fun
If your company at night is the remote control, not your
loved ones
If your comfort lies in food or alcohol
If you speak at people rather than converse with them, exploring
their world
If you use work as an excuse for neglecting your family and
self
If you moan to others rather than deal with the issue head
on
If you have forgotten your dreams and lost your passions
If you are pretending not to know, what you will find
out later
You
are ready for the challenge of Active.e.
You
can
be active and change: this second, every second. Your
future, your choice. The boundaries you accept are the
ones you build inside your head.
Active creates
experiences using real activities that will change the way
you think & feel about yourself and your self limiting
beliefs. You will change what you chose to accept from yourself.
We
will
encourage
you
to
take
risks, to challenge,
to be adventurous.
We will
be with you when you make your jump, when you start exploring,
when you realise that it's not the destination, but the journey
that fills your life with power and purpose. We will not force
you, just show you how to navigate again and we may travel
with you a while if you're good to be around!
We
will guide you as you explore your real world rather than the
superficial situation of everyday activity. We will focus you
to accelerate your life learning
rather than flog you to just work harder. We will support
you to tackle your most demanding challenges rather than ignore
them pretending not to know. We will celebrate with you
and enjoy your success as you strengthen your relationships,
integrity
and
performance.
Every
second counts.
Be
100% real
Be you
