Gritty people was born from a passion and a deep curiosity of people, all people, from all walks of life. We find the interactions between people fascinating, not to mention how an individuals mind and focus influences successful, and sometimes not so successful outcomes! We work with primarily with leaders and athletes to develop their use of the five attributes of Grit. Have you ever experienced
a time in your life or career when the odds are stacked against you.... but somehow you have managed to get yourself over, around or under that obstacle? I'm guessing you have .. we all have a bit of grittiness in us, it's there to build upon and develop, if we choose to...
We help you better understand your current level of self- awareness, why? because your level of self -awareness directly influences your emotional responses, guiding your thinking and behaviour, allowing you to manage and adjust responses to suit any situation and achieve both your short and long term goals. So, what is Grit?
> Courage
> Resilience
> Contentiousness
> Excellence (not perfection!)
> Endurance
If your self awareness and therefore emotional responses are not in hand, if you are not currently able to manage your distressing emotions, if you struggle with empathy then I'm going to take a punt and guess some of your relationships, and generally what you are getting from life is not where you want it to be. If any of the above describes you (or you in certain situations or contexts) then you are in the right place ! because this is your opportunity to get grittier ! Effective relationships, are out of reach without awareness of others,
Awareness of others is pretty tricky if you have low/no self management strategies
Self -management is absolutely not possible if you are not aware of your own emotional patterns and behaviour (self - awareness)
In short, no matter how smart (IQ) you are, you are not going to get very far. because no amount of academic and intellectual ability so going to help you with human interaction (EI). At Gritty People we work with you to develop this untapped resource, be true to yourself, change the story and achieve results beyond belief.
