Fearbusting!® 19 & 20-Nov-09 Cardiff £199
What stops us from reaching our full potential? What stops us from speaking up, going for that job, having that difficult conversation or making that life change that we want so much? More and more, fear is being recognised as a very real force that prevents us from moving foward and taking control of our lives and career. Fear is a natural, primitive response designed as a self-protecting mechanism but in this modern world it can have undesirable effects that hold us back. In this two day workshop you will explore where this fear is coming from and how to work through your fear to get the results you want.
