ELC MODULE 800: OPTIMIZING YOUR ATTITUDE, ENERGY

AND FOCUS

This program is custom-designed to help National Park Service management
professionals learn and practice self-motivational tools, resiliency
tactics and habits of excellence for sustained happiness and
productivity. The program facilitator is Dr. Michael Dunphy, a
professional speaker and educator who has over 25 years of experience
helping professionals optimize attitude, habits and skills. By combining
interactive learning with key principles from science, martial
strategies and two decades of business leadership savvy, Dr. Dunphy
brings this program to life with his dynamic teaching style and
immediately useful tools and tactics for busy, active professionals.

During this program participants will explore "primary motivational
drivers," ways to "clarify your baseline," the champion versus victim
polarity, the 3-layers for creating, sustaining and optimizing the
internal energy to perform optimally, the art and science of resiliency
and the 5-stage model for enabling any change. This learning experience
is based on the best practices of adult learning, up-to-date research
and the unique combination of talents and experiences innate to Dr.
Dunphy. Participants should be prepared for an enjoyable, practical and
memorable experience in personal and professional development.

[Key Learning Outcomes]{.underline}:

After completing this program, participants will

1.  be able to apply daily cognitive, affective and tactile
    self-motivation strategies to enable an on-going champion attitude
    that will increase productivity, professional engagement and the
    courage to take action for improvement.

    of sustaining excellence. Ten specific habits of excellence will be

    professional, setting clear expectations, prompt follow-through,
    constant exposure to wisdom, "renma-constant polishing," indomitable
    spirit, optimizing your biochemical machine and helping other people
    succeed.

3.  understand the value of resiliency and be able to practice five
    specific behaviors for greater resiliency. These include: "positive
    cognitive programming," a positive biochemical baseline ("don't blow
    your FEWS -- food, exercise, water & sleep"), effective conflict
    management, living to standards/ethics, and learning to reframe
    obstacles.
