IS THIS COURSE RIGHT FOR YOU?
Would your work benefit if you could improve problem-solving approaches and explore techniques for critical thinking?
Building awareness about the way you think and respond is an essential capability. Are you able to recognise automatic thoughts and responses and press the pause button to slow your thinking and engage in assessment of an issue rather than a knee-jerk reaction?
