SELF-MASTERY
There is one mysterious person you cannot avoid, like it or not. This person does everything you do and you don’t do. This person makes you do things and holds you back. This person makes you laugh and cry. This person can make you feel heavy or light. Life is better if you get along and learn to know this person.Who is it?

KEY MESSAGES TO LEAD MEETINGS
You are your most important tool to know, to learn to accept and to develop
You as an expert, as individual, as a participant and leader or manager are not the same person. You are a group in one
Be a proactive leader – meetings need a leader Leading is a balancing act - taking care and respecting
people is nr 1 Prepare but be flexible – never lose your focus and your
end Know where and why you are – begin with the end in mind!
