Managing Through Affirmation

  • Take the most effective traits from elite sports coaching.
  • Spend time identifying what is good. Recognise achievement first.
  • Fully engage the individual in the improvement of their own performance.
  • Motivate rather than monitor.
  • Coach rather than supervise.
  • Understand the hidden power of negative avoidance and learn how to recognise and break down the barriers.
  • Develop individuals’ self-esteem and self-worth, the foundation of confidence.
  • Create an awareness of the power of language, then develop the skills to use it productively.
  • Keep people interested, informed and involved – the affirmation is about their performance, achievements and qualities.
  • Develop your language so individuals are inspired and confident to take on the challenge of doing things differently.

Official Feedback from In-Person & Virtual Events

Feedback from In-Person Events:

“Dave Alred offers a unique and challenging way of getting managers to improve their performance through coaching with a constant improvement mentality. He focuses on using productive language and encouraging individuals to operate in the "ugly zone" to broaden their mindset and apply new found skills in the workplace. We have found it both challenging and rewarding.” - Mike, MD Mercedes Swindon

“In a wide-ranging talk full of ideas and real-world examples, Dave brought all of his incredible experience to bear in a way that captured the imagination of the room and left every one of us with something meaningful and practical to take forward as we think about the environment we create for others and how we best support ourselves. A real highlight for the team and a catalyst for positive change.” - Tom, MD, Tesco

“Two Circles found Dave's session brilliant! The application of performance principles into the workplace deeply resonated with our team. We loved the ball exercises, team building nature. Dave is brilliant communicating and a master in his field.” - Gareth, CEO, Two Circles
