Description

GREAT TO MAGNUS provides the theory, science principles, practices, formulas, and step-by-step inter/intra neurobiological roadmap to deliver results with confidence.
Those of us who have been a student of leadership and have followed the work of Jim Collins, “GOOD TO GREAT,” recognize that becoming GREAT LEADERS is a complex but rewarding journey. But what happens to leaders when they become great in what they do? Are they finished or can they raise the bar to become MORE by over-excelling in their leadership, wellness, and resiliency?
We are living in a rapidly changing world! As culture changes, leaders must adapt to this new dynamic. Public Safety professionals live with daily volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA). The scrutiny and criticism pitted against first responders today are unprecedented, creating increasing stress on public safety professionals. GREAT is no longer good enough – we must build higher capacities for the first responders. We need stronger leadership, performance, well-being, and anti-fragility to maneuver the New Normal!

The great value of the workshop is based on the science and practices of human behavior and is delivered in a format that is easily applicable to our daily lives to improve the leadership and well-being of each person willing to apply these principles. The workshop introduces a new theory of human behavior “MAGNUS OVEA” that utilizes a series of interlinking interpersonal and intrapersonal neurobiological capacities designed to turbocharge star performance. Filled with tactical and practical tools tested with over 10,000 public safety and military operators, you will be able to identify, relate to and build neurobiological capacities.
