Limit or Remove Negative Phrasing

Using negative words can lead to our thoughts becoming negative. Here, we will learn about the five key phrases that a person should remove from their vocabulary.

Module Four - Four D Model

This module introduces us to a new way of thinking. This can be used to create a plan that can help us reach our goal and deliver the result to us.

Discovery

Discovery is finding the type of processes, organization, and skills that work for you. This can be done by talking with managers and employees about their past experiences.

Finding What Works

Before interviewing an employee, we already have an idea of the qualities and skills needed for the position. The key here is to determine what works for both the employee and the company.

Recognize the Reoccurring Themes

      Commitment

Having a positive mindset does not make you immune to the outside world or to the things that can go wrong. However, it gets you prepared for adversity and being in a better position to face adversity.

People are More Flexible and Creative

Being more flexible and creative gives you the ability to manipulate how you view a problem and how to solve it. It is about having options and how you react to certain situations.

Many of us suffer from having a negative attitude, automatically assuming the worst in any situation. We will discuss how we can handle any situation positively.

Current Decisions Will Be Influenced Positively

Our current decisions are influenced by how we see things later. Here we will learn how to limit our negative anticipation and concentrate on creating a positive outlook to improve our overall confidence.

Base it on Data and Real Examples

One of the negative things about anticipatory reality is that these are often based on previous thoughts and conclusions. We often think about negative things, but we have nothing to base it upon.

Module Seven - Appreciative Inquiry Interview Style

Interviews are often associated with fear and anxiety. The Appreciative Inquiry interview style helps to do away with the stereotypes.

Framing Positive Questions

Solicit Positive Stories

Start the interview with positive experiences and events. Ask the interviewee to share their positive experiences and personal qualities.

Finding What Works

Before interviewing an employee, we already have an idea of the qualities and skills needed for the position. The key here is to determine what works for both the employee and the company.

Shaping Performance with Positive Imagery

Positive imagery does not only remind you of a job well done but can also be a good motivator. Often good performance is a result of the performance we want.

Being Better Prepared for Adversity

Having a positive mindset does not make you immune to the outside world or to the things that can go wrong. However, it gets you prepared for adversity and being in a better position to face adversity.

People are More Flexible and Creative

Being more flexible and creative gives you the ability to manipulate how you view a problem and how to solve it. It is about having options and how you react to certain situations.
