To set effective targets, managers must push and influence their team to perform well and achieve results for new projects or clients. Once the team builds momentum through continuous driving, they will start to perform at a high level on their own and become unstoppable. There are three types of employees - those stuck in the past who give minimum effort, those focused on current tasks who are average, and those looking ahead who excel and have a "whatever it takes" attitude to drive results.

How many times have we been fed sorry and repetitive excuses for bad or delayed results? All too often, people paint themselves as victims; blaming other people or the circumstances around them for their problems or failures. Though some say that they know their responsibilities and the repercussions of their own actions, many of us know that this is simply lip-service.
This type of behavior often leads to many other undesirable traits, such as: aversion or confusion to change, lack of trust, negative conflict, lack of commitment, avoidance of accountability, and inattention to results.
“The Dynamics of Proactive Thinking” will teach participants how to take control of their own actions by moving with purpose and initiative. This influential course is ideal for helping participants improve their competency in managing change and taking responsibility for their life in order to quit passing the blame to others.
