Nathan Simmonds:

Good afternoon everyone. Welcome to today's Sticky Learning Lunch. We're just waiting for the last few people to arrive. Some good, good numbers of early arrivers this morning, this afternoon, sorry. So we're just gonna give it 30 more seconds while we're letting the last of those people come in. And then we're gonna get cracking fired up and fired into what we're gonna be covering today with PDPs, personal development planning and helping to erase some of those common myths or those mindsets we have around it so that actually we're making the most out of it.

Nathan Simmonds:

Actually. We are using them for what they're actually, and they're, they're, they're there for and actually doing something about it and making sure that we are putting all our intention, our attention into these things so that we're taking the action we we're and we're causing the movement and we're deliberately going where we wanna go to. So we're just gonna give it 30 more seconds. So setting everyone up for success.

Nathan Simmonds:

Mobile phones. Let's make sure everyone's got their mobile phones up, wave 'em nice and high and then put them on flight mode. Let's remove the distractions for the next 30 minutes. If you've got your email open closer, if you've got your, he says, I've even done mine. So if you've got any other social media open, close it down.

Welcome to part 1 of Personal Development Plan Where to Start

 

Nathan Simmonds:

Let's make sure that we are removing the distractions and making sure that we are fully engaged in what we're doing and helping with the learning here. Bear with me. So let's do this. It's come off the full screens, get you on here, get you with me. So we're covering today. Today we are gonna be covering the first part of this week's micro learnings from, uh, from MBM Making Business Matter on personal development planning.

Nathan Simmonds:

My name is Nathan Simmons, senior leadership coach and trainer for MBM, the Home of Sticky Learning. We are the leadership development and soft skills provider to the grocery and manufacturing industry. Idea of these launches is to give you some daily content. Uh, don't seem to be able to hear you. Oh, is it? Can everyone else hear me before I keep going? Was it just Matt? Yes. I've got some yeses up there.

Nathan Simmonds:

Okay. Yeah, Matt might need to close it down. Come back in. Um, tweak and adjust your headphones. Go that route. Route this route. So we are, uh, leadership and soft skills provided to the grocery and manufacturing industry. The idea of these sessions is to give you daily content, micro learnings. It's gonna keep pushing your thinking one step further right now in this current moment. And also for when you return to whatever that normal is in a week's time, two weeks time, however that looks for you.

Nathan Simmonds:

These sessions are held here to help you be the best version of yourself. We have five days of PDP planning. What are we gonna be covering? Quite a lot. In fact, I had a huge list. The importance of this, the structure of this, the mistakes that people make around this. I get really fired up about this sort of thing because it's really important and not enough people are doing it on a daily basis.

Nathan Simmonds:

Said it before and I'll say it again. People spend more time planning a two week trip to Mexico than they do with their entire lives. And then they wonder why either they're miserable in what they're doing or they're not getting the traction on where they want to be or where they would like to be. So let's let that sink in just for 30, not even 30 seconds, three seconds 'cause of the time we've got and making sure that we're getting that mindset.
