2013 beckons! This is our year, what’s yours?

Are you planning your 2013 business or life yet?

So many people make New Year’s resolutions that fail at the first hurdle.

But what about planning what you want to achieve? How many of us really do that?

I thought I’d share my plans for 2013 at the Smart School and my role in it as the founder.  So, in the famous words of Dermot O’Leary – in no particular order…

• The continued improvement and growth of the core programmes including the launch of Dynamic Youth Coaching and a Health and Wellness Coaching programme.
• Cutting down on the number of coaching intakes to allow our head of course, Paul Kensett, to focus on developing other aspects of the programme including, potentially, a Master Coaching Programme.
• Launching the Master NLP Therapist Programme in April with Peggy Guglielmino.
• Revealing a beautiful new website in the second quarter of 2013 with unique sub-sites for each programme enabling us to share our message more fully with people interested in what we do.
• Running two major conferences – one on Authentic Happiness and another on Reclaim your Power and I’ll be looking for Smart School coaches as well as some bigger names to speak at these.

 

As for me, I have decided to stop training personally next year other than completing the programme for my lovely Rapid Results Business Coaching group and honing the Existential Course in February and May.

Finally, I plan to make a documentary style video on the issues that we confront at the Smart School in terms of why people need coaches and NLP practitioners and how culture locks people into certain ways of thinking about themselves.

So that’s my plan for 2013 – what’s yours?
