Developing Your Inner Circle

Individuals will learn why it is important to have a strong inner circle of individuals to help them to become more successful personally and professionally.   The final result of this workshop will be each individual walking away with a better understanding of the current value of people that they are connected with and the voids that they need to fill.  Each participant will develop a set of cards that they will personalize with the names of the key individuals that they currently have in their circle as well as individuals they need to draw into their circle. Participants will also come away with strategies on how to strengthen and broaden their inner circle. The Inner circle cards are based on John Maxwell’s books; The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership and The 360 Degree Leader.
