High Achiever Land

Description:
​You’ve worked hard to get here. You’ve followed the rules, beat out your peers, stayed up late, tried to help everyone you can. And you’re tired. When you stop moving, you realize you aren’t taking care of yourself. Your motivation starts to dwindle and you wonder why you push so hard.
Welcome to High Achiever Land. A place where perfectionists and leaders end up when they’ve put others before themselves for too long. A place where leaders like you show up stressed out, burned out and tired.

In High Achiever Land, we are comforted by our responsibilities. We love having people who look up to us. We love people asking us for help or solutions. We work hard, we don’t say “no” and we wake up each day with a weight on our shoulders. As soon as we accomplish something, there’s a new hill to climb.

Before we conquer the next challenge, let’s celebrate! Let’s take time to acknowledge all that you’ve done to get to High Achiever Land. You cannot grow without celebrating. We will explore the importance of pacing yourself by using intentional celebration, as it is the final key to your motivation, momentum and success.

In this session, you will learn:
  • How and why you likely arrived in High Achiever Land
  • Characteristics of someone on the path to High Achiever Land and how you can help them pause
  • How to get out of the endless “doing more” cycle
  • The REAL skills you need as a leader (hint: it’s not perfection or knowing all the answers)
  • How to empower your peers to solve problems instead of bringing their problems to you to solve
  • How to set fair and reasonable boundaries and have people respect you MORE for it

Subtle Strength: Leading with Coaching Skills

Leadership has changed dramatically – where we used to have top down authority, we now see leaders
creating conversations with those they are leading. We find that listening and collaborating play a huge
role in successful leadership.

The purpose of this workshop is to train consultants in soft skills while building emotional intelligence
around conversations with student leaders.

In this session, consultants will be trained on:
  • The power of coaching skills and examples of how they can be used in varying environments
  • The importance of curiosity and non-judgmentalism while helping others grow
  • The three levels of listening
  • How to ask open ended empowering questions
  • How to give input and make suggestions that will be understood and heard
  • Understanding the five main attitudes we most often encounter and how to navigate around them
