Habits of the world’s most successful – easy to implement?

Have you ever gone to a great conference, watched a life changing documentary or attended a fantastic training? Did you think to yourself “wow, so much good stuff – I will revisit my notes and start implementing some serious change!” – only for that motivation and excitement to fizzle out by the end of the week?

The issue with all big changes is that for them to become a part of your life they need to become a habit. They need to be daily muscle memory just like brushing your teeth. A change takes 17 days to take hold and a habit takes approximately 60 days to form. That is why Empowermotion is a 70-80 day programme. We’ll make sure the key habits stay with you long after you have completed the training.

The Empowermotion curriculum is built on 15 years of stage-, sports- and corporate performance experience. It was always intended to be easy to understand and implement, effective in its outcome. Everyone you meet, whether it be a coach or a specialist speaker is someone with real life experience from similar challenges to yours. Real people working in real organisations with plenty of work and career experiences. Or in other words: no tools that we do not actively use ourselves.

We knew that our programme would be effective from day one. What we could never have imagined is that our alumni describe the curriculum as life changing. Our participants find the journey genuinely enjoyable. Most of the programme graduates continue operating as a high performance peer group after we conclude our final session.

Testimonials

"Bringing Hery Henry on board at Nordic East-Africa Business Forum was a game-changer. Quick to understand our requirements, highly professional and never flustered by any kind of disruption or change in plans, he delivered a combination of high powered keynote, panel moderation, and crowd entertainment session. As a conference organizer hiring Hery Henry is one worry off the list. I truly recommend him."

"Thank you for your exceptional work in summarizing and moderating the WCEF2019 plastics panel and guiding the audience from the big picture to the important details and back again."

CEO, textile industry (Bangalore)

"What makes Hery Henry an exceptional moderator is the fact that he is also a practitioner. As an acting head of sustainability in plastic packaging, Hery combines the latest information in circularity from the sector with a long career on the microphone."

Krista TukiainenHead of Research, Climate Bonds (London)

"Hery is an inspiring public speaker and an exceptional facilitator. His intercultural know-how allows him to quickly build bridges between European, African, and North- American audiences, making him a huge asset to any global conference. At WCEF2019 the session Hery facilitated was one of the most engaging, lively and well received by the audience."

Daniel KaufmannLeading Specialist, Carbon-neutral Circular Economy, Sitra, the Finnish Innovation Fund (Helsinki)

"Hery Henry is a multitalented breath of fresh air among corporate facilitators. As an entrepreneur and former Big4 consultant, Hery speaks business and regulation as easily as he gets a crowd going as an old school MC. He’s excellent at engaging the audience, and building a truly positive atmosphere for any event is a given with him as a facilitator."
