The Private Victory and The Public Victory

Private Victory

First, participants build a foundation of character by focusing on leading and managing themselves—achieving the Private Victory. They accept full responsibility for their choices, moods, actions, and outcomes. They set goals that align their own unique mission and purpose to their team and organization, and learn how to execute those goals by staying focused on what is most important, not just most urgent.

Public Victory

Second, they achieve the Public Victory by learning how to work well with others effectively—to have lasting influence and impact. They learn the mindset of mutual abundance in every encounter, how to effectively communicate with others by listening and advocating with empathy and respect, and how to synergistically solve problems with better solutions than they have previously thought possible.
