Exploring Inner Space
“Escaping the gravitational pull of old habits, exploring inner space, setting and getting new goals.” Lyall Lukey, Co=Gen Coach
When we set new goals we harness the power of the human mind to visualise big picture outcomes. It is important to understand the radical differences between even the crudest human mind and the most sophisticated computer-and to be in charge of our own mental re-programming.

Imagineering
“Imagination is more important than knowledge” Albert Einstein
By tapping into the power of our imagination when we set new goals we harness the power of the human mind to visualise big picture outcomes. Despite big advances in AI it is important to understand the radical differences between even the crudest human mind and the most sophisticated computer.

Thinking outside the square
“Thinking outside the square- total rethink-not just tweak… involves two basic processes: escaping from your current view of the situation, and searching for a much better view of the situation.” Michael Hewitt-Gleeson
Thinking outside the square is using lateral thinking to set goals in response to a problem, challenge or opportunity. The key is to develop a clear vision of an outcome before focusing on crystallising goals and developing strategies and plans for turning ideas into action.

Attention Hijacks
“Your ability to focus is the most important success skill you can ever develop.” Brian Tracy
In an increasingly complex world, techniques to stop our attention getting hijacked by digital and other distractions are more important than ever. Smart devices are great for handling schedules and tracking tasks but these need to be under the umbrella of high level personal, family and work goals.

The Focus Process
“You are today where your thoughts brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you…” James Allen
The Focus Process encompasses big picture digital and analogue tools for goal-setting and goal-getting. It gives you daily points of focus which sustain motivation, budget time effectively, balance your lifestyle and reduce stress. The longer the lists of goals and to dos, the more overwhelmed and off-track people get. Clarity comes with simplicity and purposeful incremental steps.
It is a simple yet effective system designed to focus your attention by crystallizing goals in all areas of your life and breaking them down into bite-sized activities-the causes of the results. By managing yourself more effectively now you will unlock more of your potential and better shape your own future.

Coaching
“..a little direction, a little support, a little coaching, and the greatest things can happen.” Pete Carroll, American Coach.
It takes resources and practice to master soft skills such as team working, project leading, problem leading, problem solving and handling conflict. Each Co=Gen module provides spaced learning opportunities with coaching input and feedback.
Feedback
“The essence of feedback is that the effect of an action is fed back to alter that action.” Edward de Bono
To help you keep on track constructive feedback on initial progress is provided by Silververve coaches and peer participants. That can continue downstream if you would like that option.
Great Projects
“…people with great projects afoot…look further and more clearly into the future than people who are mired in day to day concerns..” Robert Grudin
A well-chosen project lifts people out of the mundane and allows them to focus on a worthwhile outcome with challenges and rewards. The key to a project’s success is the energy spent on crystallising first the vision, then the goals, strategies and plans to bring them to fruition.
Who would benefit from this opportunity?
“An opportunity is as real an ingredient in business as raw material, labour or finance-but it only exists when you can see it.” Edward de Bono
While the Focus on Goals module is self-contained and separately bookable it can also be a first step on the personal and leadership development escalator.
