Myths About Powerful People
Powerlessness is a condition that we all periodically encounter throughout our lives. While the intensity of our experience of disempowerment varies over time, there is little doubt that it is a phenomenon embedded in the very fabric of our lives. When we feel powerful, life seems an unblemished horizon of opportunity. When we experience the vacuum of powerlessness, it can range from a minor annoyance to a crippling deficit resulting in emotional instability, social isolation and poverty. We all know people that seem to exude a sense of esteem and confidence that we associate with personal power and we often make the following erroneous assumptions:
That these “powerful” individuals possess uncommon traits and abilities;
Powerful people are naturally endowed with these gifts, have assumed their talents without effort, or been granted power by someone;
That it is unlikely we can ever possess the sort of positive self concept we see these individuals display.
By using the Personal Power Leveraging Model of Self-Empowerment, you will come to understand and believe the following:
The ingredients of personal power are skills, abilities and attitudes that you acquire and internalize. They have been identified through research and can be learned and applied in your life - the only requirement is effort. PERSONAL POWER IS TAKEN, NOT GIVEN!
Some of the questions this program will answer:
What are the traits and attributes associated with personal power? Why can't I exercise personal power when I want or need it? What are these power deficits doing to my career, relationships and family life? How is my health affected by personal powerlessness and what can I do about it? Is is possible that powerlessness is my problem rather than mental health issues? Can I actually change my self esteem and confidence levels? How do I get started to change the circumstances of my life? Will this program help me get the things in life that I want and need? How can I bring meaning and purpose back into my life?
What Can My Empowerment Score and Analysis
Tell Me About Myself?
You will be able to have your personal power matrix assessesed and your strengths and weaknesses analyzed in relation to your own life circumstances. The Empowerment IQ Test developed by Dr. Frans was initially validated with over 1000 subjects and has subsequently been used in empowerment studies across the nation. You can now take the version developed specifically for client assessment and treatment- planning employed in clinical settings
Your sense of personal power is mediated within six different domains of human experience. You will learn how well you function within each of these domains relative to other test-takers. Equally important, you will be able to identify where your power deficits are localized and where you need to focus your efforts to make the most immediate impact in your life. Our most valued life areas - RELATIONSHIPS, CAREER LIFE, and HEALTH - are profoundly impacted by the way we perceive ourselves within these power dimensions and the way we act accordingly. You will examine your personal power matrix along the following dimensions:
The Six Critical Domains
Somatic Perception - your relationship to the physical world and your self-image.
Psycho-Spiritual Orientation - your perspective on the larger cosmic forces in life, your belief system and the underlying assumptions & attitudes that govern your existence.
Self-Concept - your unvarnished self appraisal including your relationship with your past and how it affects your current self valuation.
Collective/Social Indentity - the degree to which valued social groups and collectives provide meaning and definition to your life.
Critical Awareness - your ability to monitor events in your environment, interpersonal dynamics and how this awarenss informs your responses .
Efficacy - a combination of knowledge and skills that allow you to effect change in your life and your propensity and ability to act on them.
