We limit ourselves by looking too often at the big picture, and at other times too long at the fine detail.

However, there is great power in these misperceptions. We can learn to leverage perceptual illusions if we know when and how to use them to our advantage.

In this webinar Social Psychologist Emily Balcetis will share four powerful yet largely untapped visual tactics that you can use to improve outcomes in several situations.

In this webinar you will learn (Learning Objectives):

  • Narrow Your Focus – How narrowing your focus helps you exercise effectively, save money, and find more time in your day.
  • Widen the bracket – Seeing the forest instead of the trees reduces temptations and helps you recognize when a change of course is in order.
  • Materialize your plan and your progress – Creating checklists and objective assessments inspires better planning and adjusts your gauge of what’s really left to be done.
  • Control your frame of reference – Knowing where to direct attention improves your ability to read others’ emotions, negotiate better outcomes, foster stronger relationships, and overcome fear.
  • Successful people literally see the world differently.
  • In this training you will learn how anyone can leverage this “perception gap” to their advantage!
