Building a Deep Motivational Culture for Positive Change
I was impressed by the non-judgmental listening and ability to see the whole person, which clearly overcomes resistance. I discovered that resistance is not to be feared, that we can hear beyond it, and it is important to be aware of our own motivational dynamic in the moment. The dialogical model opened possibilities.
I was impressed by Dr. Mustakova’s approach to naming - something we often avoid in fear of “imposing” our interpretations. I saw how impactful it can be and I could connect to what others shared and to the feeling behind it. It helped me realize the importance of authentic connection with the other based on authentic way of being with oneself.
The dialogue prompted me to reconsider the culture we create in our training programs and the attention we give to it. I learned some helpful practices of reflecting back and handling challenging situations.
A very meaningful experience which is rare for such short webinars and trainings. I particularly appreciated Dr. Mustakova’s approach to overcoming barriers and keeping the main message at the center.
