Personal
mastery is a lifelong practice of personal evolution that creates
the conditions for happiness and success – it involves living
more consciously. It puts us in more direct contact with our true selves
and helps us evolve the freedom and power to create things we care to
in our lives. Thus, we are more free to master our careers, to achieve
goals for our physical bodies, and to build powerful personal relationships.
The principles and
practices embodied in The Elements of
Power™ provide the basic framework and tools for developing
personal mastery. These Elements are found in virtually every
major approach to inner development and outer success.
Professional
mastery comes from applying the principles of personal mastery
to the domain of your professional interest. You integrate personal
evolution with real-world action to build excellence where you care
to create it. Dr. Martin's speaking, training and coaching show how
to apply the tools of mastery to take charge of your career, to become
an effective leader, to help others develop, and to integrate inner
development with real world impact.
The
Elements of Career Mastery™ apply the principles and
practices to finding, following, and excelling in a career.
The Elements of Leadership Mastery™
apply the principles and practices to developing excellence in leadership
- of yourself and others.
What
Informs This Work?
Many traditions
across cultures and across disciplines offer insight into the mechanics
of awakening while building effectiveness in the arena of everyday life.
In fact, the consciousness disciplines provide us with the insights
and the tools to not only transcend a too-narrow view of ourselves and
the world, but also provide us with the insights and the tools to achieve
success in our chosen life and business endeavors.
In brief, the bodies
of study and discipline that inform this work include transpersonal
psychology, wisdom traditions, warrior traditions, psychotherapy, coaching,
organizational and personality research - including Dr. Martin's own
research into personality and peak experiences. To learn more about
the systems, reading and research that have contributed this approach,
