MEGA SESSION: Vuja De – How to Make a Brilliant Shift

SHRM 2011 Annual Conference

This session will challenge you to shift gears, adjust your rear view mirror of thinking, and take charge of your business and life.

PowerPoints/Handouts Available

Track: Personal & Leadership Development

Vuja De is the opposite of déjà vu. It’s stopping and looking at things afresh. Simon calls it flipology. Flipologists see things differently, allowing them to break away from the same old same old. Seeing things differently is the first step to doing things differently, and setting different outcomes in motion. At the conclusion of this informative and engaging session, you will be equipped with sound strategies to thrive and leverage your most valuable resource – people. You will also learn the following:

· View reversals, fluctuations, revolutions and other changes with positive and proactive vision

· Take ownership and align your best interest with your internal clients.

· Understand the different “gears” that are available to you and choose the right one for the right times.
