Dragons Den – Mastermind

Dragons Den - Mastermind
Sharon Person at her finest. That’s what was promised and unquestionably what was received today in the Mastermind Extended Sessions.

Kicking off the day with a grounding breakfast the Mastermind family soared for greatness in the anticipation of tomorrow’s Dragons Den spectacle. With an impressive and formidable panel of judges, tomorrow will stretch and test the talents tended in the mastermind program.

The format will be reminiscent of the popular TV show except for the kicker! For every Masterminder that manages to stand the heat and persuades the Dragons to support their plan, money will be donated toward One of the many worthy causes The Coaching Institute currently supports.

Amazing Talent Generates Amazing Results!

A Gracious Thankyou to The Coaching Institute

Mary Anderson Family Violence Program

Just before Christmas 2012 we were delighted to receive the high quantity and quality gifts you donated.  We have many stories to tell describing how we have utilized the goodies and how they were received:

  1. A four bedroom house which accommodates larger families requiring safe family violence, crisis accommodation.  At Christmas there were four children and mother residing here.  The children are 15, 13, 4 and 2 years of age.  There was much laughter when the children discovered the sporting equipment in their backyard on Christmas Eve.  The mother told us that there was even greater celebration on Christmas Day.  When the family left their home they were unable to take many of their belongings with them.  The older children were both competitive swimmers before they had to flee their home.  The swimming bathers and goggles were much appreciated and enabled the young women to recommence swimming during the Christmas holiday period.

 

  1. Two units which provide emergency crisis accommodation for women and/or women with children for three to five nights.  During the Christmas period both units were occupied with women and children.  It had not been possible for both families to pack the Christmas gifts they had purchased for their children.  Your gifts enabled all three children, aged between 4 and 7years, to have a stimulating and fun ‘Santa sack’.  We were also able to replace the outside play equipment with full sets of equipment, i.e. children’s cricket bat, balls, wickets.

 

  1. Two one bedroom crisis accommodations.  These units were occupied by single women.  One woman 22 years of age, she recently arrived in Australia and is now in the process of seeking a protection visa.  This young woman is not entitled to income, employment, etc during the immigration process; your gifts provided her with what she described as ‘luxury items’.  The second woman was 68 years of age and recently released from a psychiatric hospital.  This woman told us that the gifts gave her hope for her future as she thought that there were not many good people left in the world.

 

  1. Then we have the 6 two bedroom crisis refuge units.  Well there are now many happy children, and from what we have been told mothers! The opportunity for the children to have new outdoor play equipment has meant the children are not indoors as much as they were.   A few of the families have also let us know, post Christmas, that their children will be commencing swimming lessons at school – it was a very happy and appreciative mums when we were able to provide the swimmers, goggles and sun block.

Well we still have other stories as women not in refuge also benefited from your donation.

And not only that, we also have some equipment still in our storage to share with other families to come to our refuge during the year.

Thankyou “The Coaching Institute” with the deepest gratitude, from the women, children and staff team of  The Salvation Army Crossroads, Mary Anderson Family Violence Service

Welcome to our new students!

A huge welcome and congratulations from The Coaching Institute to our latest group of new students who have just completed their Foundations of Coaching Success Weekend here in Melbourne. As you start your journey in our ever expanding coaching community always remember that (in the words of that fabulous role model Anthony Robbins) ‘…life is constantly testing us for our level of commitment, and life’s greatest rewards are reserved for those who demonstrate a never-ending commitment to act until they achieve. This level of resolve can move mountains, but it must be constant and consistent. As simplistic as this may sound, it is still the common denominator separating those who live their dreams from those who live in regret“. So choose well, fellow coaches….as you start this journey in living life on YOUR terms.

NLP- Simply Life Changing!

Last week over 60 students had what they’ve called a life changing experience.

These Diploma students have just completed the 7 day NLP programme and have discovered what they really want and how to get there. They’ve mastered the arts of communicating and listening more effectively, changing behaviour and creating a climate for success. They’ve also opened the doors to their hidden resources paving the way for new possibilities and so much more!

See videos of what students had to say about the training.

“When I started the training I had no idea of the profound transformation that would take place. Simply a must for anyone who wants to see through the matrix in which we live…our language”. Samuel Osborne

“This was the most amazing remarkable week I have ever had, from walking in the door on day one and walking out on day 7 as a queen, knowing I have the knowledge to run my kingdom.” Elizabeth Rea

“My life and business has gone to a whole new level and it has moved me even closer to my life goals. With all of the outstanding support and training and more; I can now make my dream and the dreams of others become mine and there reality. I love you Alice and Sharon.” Shirley Kerkow

“The delivery of the message of mindset has been excellent! It’s so empowering. There are going to be so many highlights over the next seven days. However,  in particular,  I am looking forward to refining and defining my goals for my business through what I learn this week.” Helen Treloar

“Sharon really kicked off with a bang and put the fire cracker up our butts and inspired  us to bring our best game into the room for the whole training!

NLP Rocks

I attended the first day of the NLP training this weekend and boy it totally rocked!

The training kicked off with Shaz who wowed the crowd with a kick start talk. She emphasised the need of letting go of fear and stressed the importance of allowing yourself to ‘royally mess it up’ once in a while- otherwise you’ll never move outside of what you already know! She also talked about the importance of modeling and certainty, techniques and personal qualities she credits as being a part of her huge success! Shaz also demonstrated basic NLP techniques to help one of the students get rid of their paranoia of bridges, the word is that the next day the student walked along a bridge- something they wouldn’t have been able to do before the training!

Shaz was a mean act to follow, but the wonderfully talented Alice did a beautiful job! Alice, who is an internationally renowned, certified trainer of Neuro Linguistic Programming, gave us an insight into the power of positive language and of goal setting to help you and others achieve their dreams. And as a special treat, we also got to hear Alice, who also trained as a classical singer, sing!!

I left reluctantly after the weekend to get back to the office! The training was an eye opener and totally awesome!

As the training draws to an end later this week, I’ll give you further updates,  including an excerpt of Sharon’s welcome talk! In the meantime this is what some of the NLP students had to say at end of day one:

“I have a feeling that something awesome is about to happen, it’s building and I know that I have to get over myself. I am really looking forward to having more power and freedom in my life and help others get there too.” Natalie

“If there is one training you should attend in your life then, it’s this NLP training.” Kamilla

“My biggest learning so far is that I need to model, and for me it is to model Sharon and her approach. I am really looking forward to learning about myself over the next seven days!” Matthew
