In this interactive keynote session, you will learn the importance of practicing the art of honoring the greatness within yourself and others by understanding the power of being self-aware. Self-awareness is critical for career success. A recent study found that 95% of people think they’re self-aware; however, only 10-15% truly are (Eurich, Forbes). People who are more self-aware tend to perform better at work and lead more effectively. Companies with self-aware team members have shown to be stronger financial performers.

During this growth session you will be introduced to the ladder of assumptions. You will be reminded of what happens when our assumptions go unchecked. Our thoughts, both accurate and inaccurate, might be more vital than how we communicate with one another. Being aware of the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves, as well as the stories we tell ourselves about other people is a lifelong journey. When we are self-aware, we can clearly see how our intentions don’t always align with our impact and most importantly remind us “we can’t believe everything we think.”

 Learning Objectives:

• Introduction to the ladder of assumptions
• Awareness and ability to identify the stories we tell ourselves
• Importance of self-awareness to compare intentions with impact
