Build your mental fitness
Introduction:
In challenging situations, our minds often default to self-sabotaging patterns that hinder performance, collaboration, and well-being. Positive Intelligence, developed by Shirzad Chamine, introduces the concepts of Saboteurs and Sages—mental forces that either weaken or strengthen our ability to thrive.
This workshop helps participants identify their internal Saboteurs, cultivate Sage powers, and develop a mental fitness framework to respond to challenges with clarity, empathy, and resilience.
Training program and objectives:
• Understand the concepts of Saboteurs and Sages within the Positive Intelligence framework and their impact on mindset and behavior.
• Learn to identify your personal Saboteurs, such as the Judge, Hyper-Achiever, Pleaser, or Avoider, and their influence on thoughts and actions.
• Explore Sage powers, including empathy, curiosity, and innovation, and how to activate them to counteract Saboteurs.
• Develop mental fitness techniques, such as mindfulness-based PQ (Positive Intelligence Quotient) reps, to strengthen Sage responses.
• Practice applying Sage powers to common professional challenges, such as conflict resolution, decision-making, and leadership.
Training Format:
- Duration: Half-day or full-day
- Delivery Options: Online or Face-to-face (F2F)
- Maximum number of participants: 15
Outcomes:
Participants will gain a clear understanding of their own mental Saboteurs and learn strategies to quiet these inner critics. By activating Sage powers, they will build resilience, improve decision-making, and enhance collaboration.
The workshop give participants practical tools to foster a positive mindset, overcome challenges, and achieve greater impact in both personal and professional settings.
This interactive workshop blends theory with hands-on exercises, self-assessments, and group discussions to create a transformative learning experience tailored to professionals in diverse fields, including the life sciences.
