Mental Motivation Overview

This workshop focuses on maximizing motivation in the classroom, in the workplace, or on the playing field by teaching students and athletes to develop their thinking process in a systematic fashion used by successful athletes, administrators, and students. The materials presented will challenge you to “think” in new ways as you teach, manage, or coach. This course is not a “pep” talk” or a “collection” of encouraging sayings, but a road map of “how” to increase motivational thinking. Participants will benefit from the newest applications of brain science and practical approaches to improving success and motivation.
