- By planning strategic bespoke training modules, customized interventions, workshops, and coaching for Senior and Middle-level management; Ergos Mind focuses on bringing about ‘inside-out’ transformation rather than ‘outside-in’ change.
- ‘Ergos’ is a Greek word that means ‘faithful execution of a task’. Hence, Ergos Mind aims to inspire thought processes that lead to impactful execution.
03:35- About SIT-speak, inspire and teach
- I wanted to really crystallize what my purpose was.
- I came across this acronym after a bit of thought.
- I knew I wanted to be speaking, to be inspiring people, and to be teaching them to become the best version of themselves.
- I follow a purpose list rather than a to-do list.
13:23- How does culture impact coaching?
- It plays an important role because often culture becomes the lens through which you see yourself, and evaluate yourself.
- Culture becomes a boundary with which you are called to operate with.
- I tell my coaches, let your work be worthy, but don’t try to find your self-worth through the work.
- Make sure you’re pursuing excellence in what you do, but don’t let the outcomes of your work determine your levels of confidence and values.
