Controlling the Controllables
Why book this masterclass?
Worrying about what we can’t control affects our wellbeing and our mindset. It wastes time that could be used more productively. We need to focus on what we can control.
This masterclass will show your team how to bring what they can control back under control. Most people don’t make the link between worrying about what they can’t control, and the stress they are experiencing. When they take time to work out the source of the stress, they can employ coping strategies; this allows them to improve their wellbeing and thus their long-term productivity.
In this masterclass Ian shares his tried and tested 3F Framework and other practical techniques he has used to win in both sport and business. He will help your staff to control their stress and show them how to create a mindset focused on achieving their best results for your organisation.
Worrying about what you can’t control leads to stress and staff absence. Take back control for increased productivity.
Through this masterclass, participants:
- Gain a better understanding of how they are affected by worrying about what is not controllable
- Take away techniques for realising what is in their control
- Learn how to cut anxiety levels in tough times
- Create coping strategies for when anxiety, stress or nerves hit
- Learn how to smile through it all!
Stopping Self-Talk
What will you learn?
Studies show that the average person spends 80% of their time thinking negative thoughts; 95% of those thoughts are repetitive. These negative, repetitive thoughts, or self-talk, have a negative effect on your team’s productivity. In this masterclass Ian shares techniques he has used in sport and business, to control his negative self-talk. These techniques will give your staff the best chance of achieving their best outcomes and your organisational objectives.
This masterclass also teaches attendees ways of recognising when and why negative self-talk happens. Through his own experience, Ian shows them how to change that self-talk into positive ‘can do’ statements, helping them increase self-belief and resilience.
It takes time to change a behaviour, create a habit or to shift perspective; the key is to take the first step. Ian can help your staff take those tough first steps with his Olympic level techniques, for controlling negative self-talk and developing a more productive ‘can do’ attitude.
Help your team clear out the negative thoughts inside their heads, to make room for the positive ones, to improve their wellbeing and productivity.

- Create a strategy to cut it out, or cope with it much more effectively
- Develop their own positive power statements

Solution Focused Mindset
Why run this masterclass?
Focusing on a problem rather than the solution can make the situation worse. It can build up the perceived barriers and stop us from finding positive outcomes. Sometimes we immerse ourselves so much in the issue we are facing, that it seems impossible to solve. We need to take ourselves away from the situation, break it down and see where it fits into a bigger picture, in order to create a solution focused mindset and a winning way.
Einstein said, “We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
Muhammad Ali said, “Its people’s fear that stops them taking on challenges.”
In this masterclass, Ian shares both his business and sports experience, showing delegates how they too can develop winning mindsets – even if they’re not chasing medals.
Enable your staff and improve their productivity with tried and tested Olympic techniques for overcoming problems and building confidence.

- Explore the difference between a problem focused mindset and a solution focused mindset
- Learn techniques to create a solution focused mindset
- Try out practical approaches to find what suits them best
