Masterclasses
As part of our talent development programmes, we organize several masterclasses. The approach and content is generally adapted to the organizational and personal requirements.
None the less, we have some off-the-shelf masterclasses readily available. As an example: the Hocus Focus Masterclass
Facts
Research
Research shows that every day we receive information equal to about 174 newspapers. 174!!?
Incoming information today is unstoppable, it comes at us through different devices while the speed of it all is mind blowing.
Feeling
We tend to lose focus quickly – we’re doing on thing, two minutes in we forgot what we were doing, we spend way too much time on e-mails, we barely get any work done, there’s no time left for ourselves,
there’s no end in sight.
Masterclass Hocus Focus
With our Masterclass we want to give you back the control of your own attention spam. Know how your brain operates so you can manage the hacks that fit your neurological pattern.
You can expect:
- Reflections first: we’ll take some time to reflect before moving forward.
- 8 online modules + 2 Live sessions (replays will be available if you can’t make it)
- 1 guest speaker (surprise!)
- Your own brain profile
- Learn and watch at your own pace (no rushing allowed)
- Scientifically validated tools & information: theory with a pragmatic approach
- We offer a Hocus Focus workbook: so it doesn’t stay fluffy, but you can dig right in.
- Concrete tips, tricks and templates for own use
Bonus
We offer icing on the cake! Our Masterclass includes your Brain Profile with personal advisory report. This allows us to advise you tailored to your needs. Each and every one of us has different challenges in the area of attention management. What these challenges are for you depend on your cognitive abilities and talents. The development of your brain has decided the challenge for you! So let’s advise on exactly that!

"It is part of my job that I have to keep several balls high at the same time. In addition, I frequently work from an open space and I am constantly connected. In the Hocus Focus Master Class I learned how to keep my head in the game.
