Persevering Through Obstacles
A half day to hold on to a goal when obstacles pile up: a late supplier, a breakdown that keeps coming back, a client who says no, a project that stalls. Participants learn to sort out what is in their hands, break a distant goal into steps they can sustain, analyse a setback without losing heart, and recognise when to change method rather than push harder. The work is built on a real obstacle brought by each person.
Duration0.5 day
Request a quoteObjectives
- Tell apart, when facing an obstacle, what depends on you, what you can influence and what must be accepted
- Break a distant goal into short steps with visible checkpoints
- Analyse a setback from the facts to draw an action from it, without looking for someone to blame
- Identify the point where perseverance turns into stubbornness and the plan needs adjusting
- Build a plan to get past a real obstacle in your own job
Programme
Half day
- What wears perseverance down: repeated obstacles, results that are slow to come, discouraging talk around you
- Sorting: what depends on you, what can be influenced, what has to be accepted
- Breaking the effort down: short milestones, small wins, visible progress tracking
- Continue, change method or stop: three questions to decide after a failure
- Workshop: action plan for the obstacle each participant brought, challenged in pairs
Teaching methods
- Work on a real obstacle brought by each participant: a blocked project, a late objective, a rejected file
- Short cases from industry and services: a line start-up that keeps breaking down, a tender lost twice in a row
- Self-assessment of your usual reactions to failure
- Pair discussions to test each person’s plan
- A 30-day follow-up sheet given to each participant
Assessment and documents
Knowledge test at the end of the half day, post-training evaluation at D+1. Each participant receives a numbered training certificate, verifiable online; the company receives the training report.
Bilingual materials for every participant; each classroom course comes with its digital twin on OmniLearn.
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from “Moving to Action: From Intention to Execution”?
“Moving to Action: From Intention to Execution” helps you take the first step: decide, start, stop putting things off. This module starts once you have begun but obstacles keep recurring and results are slow to arrive: the point is to sustain the effort and know when to adjust it.
Is this a personal motivation course?
Not in the sense of a motivational talk. The module gives concrete methods: sorting factors, breaking work into milestones, analysing a setback, criteria for continuing or changing method. Everyone leaves with a plan applied to their own situation.
Do participants need to come with a specific situation?
Yes: a current obstacle in their job, such as a project that is not moving or a late objective. It is the thread running through the workshop. Confidential details can stay anonymous.
Can it be organised for a whole team?
Yes, as in-company training at your site, for a group of 6 to 12 people. The workshop can then focus on an obstacle the team shares, for example an annual objective that is running late.
