What are they?
Four programmes that can be delivered online or in person, on a weekly or bi-weekly basis.
The Mindset of Growth programme is 4 sessions, and the other three programmes are 6 sessions.
The sessions last for two hours.
The programmes are designed to give the boys and the young men practical tools to help them build key skills needed to be successful in life. Key skills such as confidence, communication, resilience, emotional regulation and mastery, critical thinking, the ability to focus and mastery over their thoughts just to mention a few.
We support the boys and the young men to master their self-sabotage mechanism, imposter syndrome, fear of failure and other inhibitors to growth.
A key theme of our programmes is empowering young entrepreneurs to grow in life and in business. The skills that they learn are naturally transferable to all areas of life – exams, self-care, communicating and interacting with parents and siblings, communicating with teachers and other adults etc.
All the sessions open for parents/guardians to sit in on. We want them to know what their children are learning.
Our programmes are designed by Ademola Adeyeba, our Founder & CEO, widely recognised as one of Europe’s top mindset coaches. He trained with a global self-development organisation and quickly rose to become the number one trainer in Europe out of 400. He then progressed to an elite level—one of only five in the UK at one point and 200 worldwide, gaining deep expertise in the principles of human performance. He also works with seasoned entrepreneurs and professionals. Now, he's passionate about sharing that knowledge with the next generation.
The sessions will be led by Ademola and other experts.
Why Entrepreneurship?
Entrepreneurship, business ownership and economic empowerment is how many young people will transform the situation for themselves and their families. The next generation are incredibly creative and are hungry for financial empowerment.
Our programmes are designed to support them in building resilience and the mental toughness necessary to take on their business ideas. Mindset is incredibly key for an entrepreneur, it is the difference between success and failure. A powerful and robust mindset will empower young entrepreneurs to produce incredible results.
