Indeed, “choice” is a key ingredient to navigating change.

As you’ll read, “Steve Magness is a performance coach for Olympians and the author of a forthcoming book, ‘Real Toughness.'”

PLAN TO BE YOUR BEST

Have you partnered with one or more trusted piers or a mentor to process your own stress and frustrations?

Have you advanced your facilitation strategies and skills for those one-on-one and group meetings?
