Shifting Gears Booster 'Revolutionary Support'

Over time, learning can start to fade and good intentions get lost - it can become difficult to set aside time to figure things out. This is where the Shifting Gears Booster Programme delivers. You have someone to listen to what is going on for you, provide another perspective, clarify your goals - keep the implementation of Shifting Gears 'top of mind'.

Via SKYPE and at agreed times, you ~

Engage in skilled 'Peer-based' discussions
Review your goals and action plans
Gain support and encouragement
Revitalise your Shifting Gears tool kit
Re-charge your enthusiasm

An on-going application of the Shifting Gears skills, this is an optional programme that can start at the same time as the programme or cut-in when the programme finishes.
