"WE ARE A COLLECTION OF PATTERNS AND HABITS"

Dr Gail Crossley-Craven, known as Dr CC, has an established and successful career. Gail is expert in leadership, human performance and professional development; the pillars on which she has built her career and by which she lives her life. 

Gail is founder of Crossley-Craven Consulting and has instructed and inspired people through writing, teaching, college and university lectures, training, business seminars, conference speaker, consulting to small business, personal counselling and educating clients all over the world 

She has a strong belief in life-long education and she truly ‘walks her talk’…hence her long list of academic and professional qualifications in education, psychology and business. She works to bring out the full potential of people and makes time for you when you need it most. .
The highlights of the program:
5:00  What is 'The Great Resignation' and the idea of 'group think'   The 2 areas we must all work on.
9:15  Professional Development vs Personal Development and the interconnection between the 2.
12:40  The million dollar question, what and how do I find my purpose and Gail's advice on maybe why you haven't found or cant find yours. 
18:53  Gail explored 'Victim Mentality' and why many people choose that.  Are we unconsciously supporting this in others?
21:00  Leadership, what it is and what it isn't.  It's lonely and isolated at the top.  Real qualities,  training, support, mentorship and the importance if communication.
32:00  Vicarious Trauma, what it is?
38:48  Validation vs Justification   

Gail is living proof of the benefits that ongoing personal and professional development, and determination has on people.  As one of her clients said many years ago, “Everyone needs a Dr CC!”
