THESE COURSES ARE FOR YOU

SKILLS ENHANCEMENT - MAPPING YOUR NEEDS FOR SELF-DEVELOPMENT

Information

with Marco Bertagni & Guity Mohammadi

For Leaders, Managers, Decision Makers and their Teams

6 hours in total, designed to be delivered in a one day workshop, currently only available in Italian

Course Overview

According to recent and accredited studies, 75% of a person's success at work depends on mastery of soft skills and only 25% on technical skills. Success - the ability to achieve excellent results with personal and professional fulfillment.

But how can entrepreneurs and managers achieve this? What skills should organizations focus on? The answer lies in guiding organizations towards the combination of digital knowledge and skills, through a path which defines, develops and strengthens purely humanistic, personal, social, relational SOFT SKILLS, applicable both in professional and private life. Improving these skills characterizes people beyond their technical skills.

During the first meeting, the mentors, an entrepreneur and a coach, will ask the company's managers to trace their emotional vision of the company. They will then work on the needs that will emerge from the detailed analysis of the maps and consequently define which skills, hard and soft, they may be willing to strengthen and improve. The second meeting will therefore be dedicated to the enhancement of the skills of each participant: this will also help others to raise awareness of the state of the art, needs and solutions to be adopted, and to acquire new skills.

A ROADMAP TO RESILIENCE - WHEN A LIFE COACH AND A GEOGRAPHER OF EMOTIONS MEET

Information

with Guilty Mohammadi & Marco Bertagni

For anyone who has difficulty maintaining self-confidence in theor personal or professional life

6 hours in total designed to be delivered in a one or two session workshop, available in Italian

Course Overview

In mapping our emotions through The River of Life methodology, each of us relives beautiful moments but also dark moments in which we had to face difficult situations.

It is precisely in the representation of these complex situations – some imaginary places that you have certainly drawn in your maps – that our greatest resource is hidden: Resilience.

In a person's life, resilience is the ability to experience a shocking event, to face it, to explore it, to process it and to live it fully, to overcome it and to arrive at a rebirth. It is a path that implies self-confidence, in the possibility of positively reorganizing ONE's life and becoming directly responsible after having spontaneously and consciously decided to continue the journey and to resume the reins of ONE'S destiny.

GEOLOGY OF EMOTIONS - DEPTH IS HIDDEN IN THE SURFACE

For individuals searching for answers from their past to enable them to move forward with clarity, confidence and strength

Information

with Marco Bertagni and Enzo Sallustro

For individuals searching for answers from their past to enable them to move forward with clarity, confidence and strength

6 hours in total, designed to be delivered as one- or two-session workshop. Available in English, Italian and Spanish

Course Overview

There can be no depth without a surface, there is no conflict between the two "measures", since in all of us there is a surface and a depth. Here we want to bring out the emotional meanings settled in our depth (layers), giving it a new shape in the extension of the surface (area). Temporally the surface represents our present, the here and now, the depth our past, the there and then. The perception we have of the depth navigates on the surface, everything, basically, lives on the surface: it is here that we can (re) know the submerged aspects and it is always here that we connect with the other, what lives on the surface is what we share and bring into social relationships. The surface has its own depth and, to paraphrase the poet Hugo Von Hoffmannsthal, we can poetically say that "the depth is hidden in the surface". Each player will draw a map and each place they will draw is referred to an event of their lives. This event will be placed in the center of the globe and starting from there, they will try to remember the different emotions they felt from the occurrence of the event to the current situation. The Course Leaders - a Geographer of Emotions and a Philosopher-Counselor – will then examine each map from different disciplinary perspectives and through sharing processes, they will make a metaphorical drilling from the imaginary places to the heart of the event. After having examined the self drillings and the coring maps, we will give some advice on how to better understand the thoughts and behaviours that followed the events in the participants’ lives. It’s a path of growth, resilience and awareness, in which participants are using a meta-language to re-focus their memories of events which affected their lives.

HOW TO ELICIT EMOTIONS THROUGH TABLE SETTING

For creative individuals who want to wow, for hospitality who go the extra for their clients and for business owners looking to impress in a novel and memorable way

6 hours in total, designed to be delivered as one- or two-session workshop. Available in English, Italian and French

Course Overview

Lucia and Marco will start with an overview on table setting and cinema. Many famous movie scenes are centered on table setting and table itself will certainly elicit values, emotions and moods.

According to the way you decide to set your table you can somehow address the event and the atmosphere. Relations, family, friendship, tradition, roots, culture, style, design, respect, business, people, taking care: there are so many elements to take into account when setting a table.

We will play some games on this subject with attendees asking them to guess who’s coming for dinner and also by asking you to draw a map of an event with different targets and to design a table setting accordingly.
