Training for Trainers is a 3 day workshop to assist career practitioners to run group sessions for clients in need of skills readiness prior to entering the labour market. The curriculum addresses social, psychological, cognitive, and attitudinal factors associated with preparation to enter the world of work. Dragon 9's primary objective is to enhance the development of basic life skills, personal competence, and skills related to social influences that promote high self-esteem necessary for successful job search. Self-esteem is the health of the mind; therefore few subjects are of comparable urgency. To face life with low self-esteem is to be at a severe disadvantage.
​
Of course there are no simple answers, but perhaps this workshop will give you some fresh ideas, new perspectives and some new strategies. Multi-Barriered clients are becoming more common , as practitioners, we need to do all we can to create an environment that is conducive to all people making good choices no matter the cause of their challenges.
This workshop explores the following questions:
-
What is self-esteem?
-
Why is self-esteem so important?
-
How can we raise the level of our self-esteem?
-
What role do others play in influencing our self-esteem?
Self-esteem is the single most important psychological subject in the world. The tyranny of low self-esteem is legendary:
- It drains meaning and purpose
- It blocks creativity and obscures options, possibilities, and choices
- It dominates thinking
- It distorts reality and perceptions
- It masquerades as truth and insight
- It cultivates a victim mentality that can be defensive and contrary
- It destroys motivation to try to start
- It gives up, sometimes to the point of suicide
- It robs people of their future
​
Every aspect of this workshop is connected to self-esteem, the core idea of this workshop is to teach: Your life is important. Honour it. Fight for you highest possibilities. Self-esteem has an immense impact on relationships, work
and the struggle for happiness. It is the common denominator, a profound and powerful human need essential for healthy change and self-fulfillment. Of all the judgements we pass in life, none is as important as the one we pass
on ourselves. Many people underestimate their power to change and grow. The belief that they are powerless
becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
