There is a lot of focus on goals and achievement in business and leadership, and rightly so. However, in this session, we will explore the often-overlooked aspects of life and work that contribute to long-term success and well-being. Think of it as pressing pause on your life and work to reflect and move forward.
Get Good® at Life and Work is a practical, engaging, and thought-provoking masterclass that helps leaders and teams thrive by focusing on the core principles of connection, motivation, productivity, and resilience, based on Lee’s years of experience and popular book Get Good® At Life.   If attendees take away just one thing, it will be the understanding that true success in both business and life is built on the power of connection—both personal and professional.
Key Themes Covered:

1. Motivation: Understanding What Drives Us

What is real motivation, and how do we maintain it?
The difference between external and internal motivation.
Identifying personal drivers and ‘The Why’ behind our work.
How understanding our own motivation helps in our day-to-day work, interactions and leadership.

2. Productivity: Working Smarter, Not Harder

Practical strategies to beat procrastination.
How to focus better in a world full of distractions.
Setting healthy work-life boundaries, particularly when working remotely.
Lessons learned from 20 years of working from home and writing books with twin toddlers!

3. Resilience: The Art of Keeping On Going

The problem of perfectionism and how it holds us back.
Real-life stories of resilience from well-known figures and everyday people.
How to develop true resilience without relying on common myths and quick fixes.
The power of communication and teamwork in challenging times.

What to Expect
This is not a dry lecture or a lazy motivational talk filled with transatlantic clichés.
Get Good® at Life and Work aims to be:

Engaging and down-to-earth – expect a mix of honesty, humour, hope and real-life application.
Insightful and research-backed – combining ancient wisdom, modern psychology, and practical strategies.
Interactive and practical – attendees will leave with clear takeaways and an action plan to implement immediately.

Why This Masterclass Matters
In an era where stress, uncertainty, and rapid change are part of daily life, staying motivated, productive, and resilient is more important than ever. This session is designed to equip leaders, teams, and professionals with the mindset and tools needed to thrive in their personal and professional lives.
Outcomes:

Have more tools to live and work with greater confidence.
Understand the power of connection and how to strengthen relationships.
Learn how to manage daily stress and anxieties more effectively.
Discover how small, consistent actions lead to lasting resilience and success.
