Genius is inevitably linked to work and career but lies behind the experience and talents catalogued in the resume. Genius can be thought of in a practical way, as the power that comes most naturally to you, and as the business you are in as a person. It can also be thought of in a spiritual way, as the energy of your soul, and as an answer to why you exist among the human community. Your genius is the essence of how you can best express yourself. It is your natural power and has significant implications for your life and work. People who recognize their genius report gaining a stronger sense of identity, a clearer sense of career direction, increased confidence, language to communicate the value that they add to work situations, higher work satisfaction and productivity, and a greater sense of personal harmony.

Participants in this seminar will:

• Clarify the concepts of genius and life purpose
• Learn techniques and practice skills to help clients identify their own genius
• Apply those concepts to work and career choices
