Charles Fillmore once said, “All causes are essentially mental, and whosoever comes into daily contact with a high order of thinking must take on some of it.” In this workshop, David Emerald Womeldorff, author of the bestselling The Power of TED* (*The Empowerment Dynamic) and Donna Zajonc, MCC, his wife and business partner, will share their powerful and provocative ways of thinking, relating and taking action in work and life. They will provide frameworks and tools for “upgrading your human operating system” that will provide a pathway for transforming drama into empowerment.
All registered participants will recieve a copy of the 10th Anniversary Edition of David Emerald's book The Power of Ted* *The Empowerment Dynamic.
"The Power of TED* is an engaging story that will help you escape from the traps of victimhood and enablement. Applying what you read will help you become truly proactive as you develop high trust in yourself and in healthy relationships with others. Enjoy it and make the shift that creates true efffectiveness."
- Stephen M.R. Covey
