Keynote Topics:
PHOENIX MINDSET – IF YOU WANT TO FLY, SURROUND YOURSELF WITH EAGLES, NOT PENGUINS
- What are the essential factors for success?
- How do you integrate them into your life?
- What influence does your environment have on you and your path?
- What can we learn from the global leaders and high achievers Sonja regularly works with?
- And why is it so fundamental to surround yourself with eagles if you want to fly rather than penguins, no matter how ‘nice’ they might be?
IF THINGS NEED TO CHANGE, TAKE OWNERSHIP!
- What if things aren’t the way they’re supposed to be?
- What if results aren’t there or aren’t good enough?
- What if the attitude around you is that of blame, “cannot” and the ever destructive “we’ve always done it this way”?
- Might it not be up to you to ignite change and finally take ownership?
- In this speech Sonja delivers easy-to-use tools and amazing inspiration to get people to take ownership and break the cycles of small-mindedness!
