TV Coverage of Crisis Seminar in Århus, Denmark on March 17th

There was a short segment covering the first of Claus's recent seminars in Denmark about avoiding the dangers and seizing the opportunities of the current financial crisis. If you're Danish, you might want to have a quick look (less than 2 minutes). They also interview staff at ProShop Europe, one of the Danish companies which is doing well, and the focus is very much on ensuring that staff receive clear communication about where they are going and how to get there - a key ingredient in the Employeeship philosophy.

See the video clip here.

The slides from the two seminars are also available in this post (in Danish).

Crisis seminar slides from Denmark

Claus did two seminars in Denmark last week on the crisis and how to come out of it among the winners. For the participants, they will be able to refresh their memory by seeing the presentation below (in Danish).

If you are interested in getting Claus to come and speak at either an in-house event (you can also invite clients and suppliers because it's a valuable message) or have him do a keynote at a conference, please contact Lis Touborg on +45 48 22 51 00 or send her an email.

Golden Nugget of the day: Self-esteem

After yesterday's golden nugget about taking responsibility for your life and actions to create a meaningful life, we received a couple of emails saying that for some people it can be hard to take this responsibility and that they felt they lacked the energy to break out from the patterns that they were following. This leads us to the daily nugget:

"Only people with self-esteem and a feeling of power can take responsibility."

If you do not have the feeling of being in control and ability to take responsibility for your life, it is often down to a feeling of powerlessness and low self-esteem. This is where you need to start your personal journey. There are many ways of building your confidence and tackling low self-esteem and everything from good coaches who can help you to finding things that you are good at and then keep on improving on those skills to build your confidence are a good way to start. Once you start to build your self-esteem and come to believe in yourself, you will also come to the realisation of what you need to do in order to take control of your life and achieve your goals.

Take responsibility!

Following on from yesterday's golden nugget, this one is very much along the same lines as it is all about realising that the responsibility for your own success or failure rests solely with you and it is up to you what you do with that responsibility:

"Taking responsibility is what it takes to create a meaningful life."
