- for new, unique, FUN and extraordinarily effective self help resources!
Helping teams
to HELP ......
BESPOKE
Workshops
......THEMSELVES
AND each other
Though this site is primarily about SELF help for individuals, if clients wish to regard “SELF” in the plural - as a team, or group, Rick has designed a range of TWO HOUR workshops on HOW TO USE the book “THINK ABOUT IT” either on its own OR to synergise the benefits with any of the other five books. And Rick is not alone! His son Luke has regularly over the years, while pursuing his own career as a Futurist, synced with Rick and other Impetus consultants. And now he is happy to assist Rick in delivering the six different workshops - all different and bespoke, but spot the common theme! To contact Luke - luke.whitehead.futures@gmail.com
1. “THINK ABOUT IT!”
all 6 workshops can be any 2 hours in any day
3. “THINK ABOUT... JANUS Creative Planning”
2. “THINK ABOUT... Leadership at WORK”
4. “THINK ABOUT... TEAMWORK to Share Care Communicate”
5. “THINK ABOUT... being a PERSUASIVE Professional”
6. “THINK ABOUT... HELPING People to Buy”
They (Luke and Rick) also offer the workshops as full day versions - same blueprint, but more in depth. See below.
What can you achieve in just two hours!
Imagine this for a dedicated THINK ABOUT IT! workshop, with Rick or Luke leading the discussions:
2 to 6 people with a common interest, sitting comfortably, two hours blocked out, phones off; creative ideas bouncing around but with Rick and/or Luke very strictly controlling time! After just two hours all leave having learned about themselves, including seeing themselves as others see them; they have new insight and ideas on WHAT TO DO in order to grow and thrive and contribute - AND how to continue being reflective and mindful forever !
Imagine this for a “THINK ABOUT IT PLUS” workshop (any one of the other 5 subjects above)
2 to 6 people all provided in advance with copies of “THINK ABOUT IT” PLUS their relevant book; after just two hours of discussing, debating and laughing, all know how to navigate and use both their books to HELP themselves AND relevant stakeholders (customers, colleagues, suppliers, students, etc) All have a refreshed insight into the skills and disciplines they need; and they can't wait to try the NEW techniques they have learned; and they are thoughtful and inspired by principles such as “Help yourself by helping OTHERS” (epigram number 6 in THINK ABOUT IT!)
The Blueprint for ALL workshops - and, yes, the common theme is THINKING!
-
​workshops are always about remodelling the FUTURE using delegates' real Case Studies of current challenges and ASPIRATIONS
-
two hour bespoke workshops can be any 2 hours, any day, any location
-
numbers are limited to ensure events really are WORK shops (not just presentations) and they truly are BESPOKE - ie, the organiser and ideally some of the nominated delegates are consulted as necessary to ensure events are truly relevant to all to achieve RESULTS!
-
time is strictly controlled (although venue and timing (eg pub in evening) might enable a voluntary and enjoyable overrun!
-
​workshops are always about the FUTURE using delegates' own real life Case Studies of current challenges and ASPIRATIONS
-
interaction and humour ensure enjoyable comparison between their SELF analysis and how OTHERS see them!
-
visualisations and discussions help delegates THINK ABOUT and identify their ideal “work/life/social” balance!
FULL DAY Versions
A full day event is exactly the same as a the two hour one! But because it is a larger investment (money and time, inconvenience, opportunity cost) an equivalent boost in returns must justify it!
-
high reaching strategic aims - quantifiable goals, targets
-
in a JANUS workshop a group scenario could be worked on
-
it is recommended that in each of the other four the relevant application of EXPERIENTIAL PROFILING be included
-
more delegates - the numbers could grow (from 2 to 6) towards 10 or more = more case studies, with brainstorming
-
relevant activities - positioning the event as a strategic, AWAYDAY with business related teambuilding for example
-
specific skills could be developed egs, listening, debating, assertiveness, body language
-
more time is allocated for detailed, meaningful Action Plans with reportable deadlines​​​
Workshop Fees
two hour workshops £2,000 for any 2 hours in a day up to 6 delegates
a full day is £4,000 for up to 12 delegates - any location
Fees include the relevant number of books and other "extras"
Our Guarantee
Pay only 50% to reserve your event, with the balance, plus any agreed Impetus costs and expenses, invoiced AFTER the event
The most important feature of all workshops is that they aim to REMODEL the FUTURE for all individuals and, where relevant, their "sponsors" (who's paying?) They are NOT academic or theoretical - they get RESULTS!
