ABOUT THE DRAMATIC LEADERSHIP PROGRAMME
The Maggie & Maggie approach is unconventional, theatrical, highly motivational, flexible, relaxed, and result orientated.
We use indoor and outdoor experiential activities.
We help people to act differently.
“Tell me and I will forget, show me and I will listen, involve me and I will understand.”
This is the Maggie & Maggie belief. Learning by doing is our motto. We believe that people come to work every day to succeed not fail. We also believe that people join organizations and companies but leave their managers.
We focus on three areas of development:-
- Individual (self-motivation, positive attitude)
- Interpersonal (presentation & communication skills, storytelling, creativity & innovation)
- Leadership (coaching skills, inspirational leadership, managing talent & diversity) Our clients in the UK, Europe, The Middle East, Asia, America, New Zealand and Australia are available on phone or email to provide feedback to PB Middle East decision makers.
THE MAGGIE EYRE & MAGGIE WARBRICK STORY
Our purpose is to unlock people’s potential.
Transforming and growing people are our results.
We are passionate about transforming human beings.
We are professional, unusual, spontaneous and energetic. We enable participants to be extraordinary, not ordinary, during the workshop process.
We are a formidable duo with extremely complimentary talents and backgrounds. Our skill base combines theatre, teaching, business, communication, leadership, and management.
Our energy is compelling, honest, motivational – perhaps even scary! We have one dream and one focus; to help people reinvent themselves into authentic leaders with compassionate hearts and minds so they can make a difference in the world of business. We instill confidence in others.
We do this by sharing our stories, and our mistakes, and by taking people out of their regular cycles and comfort zones.
Our stage is the commercial world. A world that we know and understand from our own business experience as well as from our track record in leading teams, building organizations and motivating staff.
We embarked on a journey some years ago by leaving “Down under” with wisdom, a treasure chest of practical ideas and a positive attitude.
Our compassion for our clients has resulted in long term trusting friendships and business relationships globally.
Our unique ability to motivate stems from our awareness of human dynamics, personal development and over fifty years combined experience in business leadership. We have helped thousands of business leaders all around the world to perform to a high standard.
The learning programme is aimed at long-term growth not short-term band-aid skills. The workshops will provide your people with the tools, expertise and creative stimulus to make their leadership more meaningful and productive.
