Insights and Practices
Effective performances, be they on the artistic or the business stage, are the result of combining insight with practice.
Insights are what its actually going on. coup’s insights relate to what's going on in the three levels of drama:-
- Insight into what goes on in people’s minds and body; the intrapersonal dramas
- Insight into what goes on between people; the interpersonal dramas
- Insight into what goes on in and between organisations; the organisational dramas.
Practices are consciously chosen actions or techniques that enable you to create certain outcomes at each level of drama. As the word implies, practices must be learnt and then practiced to achieve mastery.
coup offers insights into relationship and performance dynamics:-
- The diversity of people’s perspectives and engagement preference
- What it takes to engage and move people
- How power manifests in relationships
- What happens to people physically when they are out of their comfort zone
- What happens in team activities and why time and energy are often wasted.
We combine these with practices:-
- How to prepare an engaging, moving presentation
- How to adjust your own engagement strategy to build rapport and trust
- How to read power dynamics and make constructive choices that get you what you want
- How to manage discomfort, stress or moment-to-moment anxiety and build emotional intelligence
- How to steer the energy of a team towards high performance, while the team is in action.
The result is a thoroughly engaging training session that has real impact on the way participants see and interpret their reality, and which also enables them to do something differently; to create fulfilling outcomes in their professional and personal lives.
