Aligning Purpose, Passion and Performance through Coaching
SELF MANAGEMENT
In a few hundred years, when the history of our time is written from a long-term perspective, it is likely that the most important event those historians will see is not technology, not the internet, not e-commerce. It is an unprecedented change in the human condition. For the first time - literally - substantial and rapidly growing numbers of people have choices. For the first time, they will have to manage themselves. And society is totally unprepared for it.
Peter Drucker "Managing Knowledge Means Managing Oneself," Leader to Leader, 16 (Spring 2000)
Self Management is the #1 competency of successful people. Self Managers know that motivation comes from within. They establish goals. They make commitments and keep them. They own their attitude and effort. They hold themselves responsible for performance and accountable for results.
Birch Corner Associates integrates the principles of self management in most of our coaching relationships, whether the focus is executive leadership or personal transformation.
