JANUS is a VISUALISATION technique that ANYONE can use to improve their circumstances - work or personal. Rick created it from scratch as a result of getting fed up with executives he was trying to train being permanently pessimistic and negative about the future! "what's the point?" (of a training course, or even trying) - "just getting on with the job and doing my best" or wallowing in a blame culture - typically the government!
Faced with a demotivated team one day, he wrote on a white board "it is 12 months from now and you HAVE achieved ........" and asked them to be idealistic, aim high and describe the new, utopian situation in the future. The brainstorm that followed was tremendously cathartic and successful - and JANUS Creative Planning was born! With the name registered and book written, the rest, as they say about the future, is history! (Janus is a Roman god with the ability to see both past and future sumultaneously)
Rick then started using the process with dental professionals and wrote this book, personalised for them and their challenges.
And JANUS can take no TIME! Because it is easy to learn and apply, it quickly becomes a NEW WAY OF THINKING. Instead of it taking extra time, you will find yourself instantly visualising and describing in your mind positive outcomes - and the resulting image (eg of the now convinced and grateful patient) will spur you on!
APPLICATIONS
