Description

This 90-minute workshop introduces employees to the core principles of Positive Intelligence (PQ) in a fun, interactive way. PQ is a practical, neuroscience-based framework for understanding and reducing the internal mental patterns that sabotage performance, relationships, and wellbeing at work.

Participants learn how to recognise their automatic, reactive “saboteur” thinking, access their more resourceful “sage” mindset, and practise simple, evidence-based techniques that strengthen mental fitness & build resilience.

The result is clearer thinking & decision making under pressure, healthier team dynamics & performance, and more constructive responses to everyday workplace challenges.

Attendees will learn about their own saboteurs, along with those of their team-mates and together explore how saboteurs turn up to wreak havoc in their teams and workplace.
