FAQ

Why do the Awaken Experience?

The experience we have created is not designed to be an exercise that taps into the self-help market. Rather it is our sincere attempt at helping others become awake to the possibilities of what life could have in store for them if they started to live out of their God-given strengths and talents.

By experiencing what we have to offer through Awaken NZ, participants will:

• Discover their talents and how the combination of Knowledge, Skill and Talent develops potentStrengths;
  
• Grow their Relational and Emotional Intelligence helping them to become a better team member, spouse, or friend;
• Gain greater awareness of how we perceive ourselves and the world around us; and,
  
• Learn how developing character attributes will help them not only have better relationships but will also help them become the person they were meant to be.

What do we cover in the Awaken Experience?

The Awaken Experience is an inductive programme that helps each participant initiate a new approach to making the most of their natural talents and temperament.

Rather than relying on one assessment, we use several leading tools to create a holistic approach to developing greater understanding of ourselves and others. Our application of these tools also gives participants practical skills to be able to apply our insights to their real-life contexts, whether it be work or play.

Through the Awaken Experience, participants can expect to discover their great areas of talent and how to transform those talents into strengths; insight into their personality type and how to embrace their own and that of others; and finally, insight into how developing their character can enable them to be the person they were meant to be. 

Some of the tools we use (click our Tool page  for more info):

Myers Brigg’s Type Indicator
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) serves as an excellent introduction into the concept of personalities. It provides Awaken participants with language in which to frame discussions on how they perceive personalities and how they would describe their own personality. More…

Character Matrix
Character fuels a life of conviction, passion, and focus. The Character Matrix will engage your value system and press against the core of what it means to be human. Stepping into this matrix will challenge who you are and how you understand influence. More..

Johari Window
The Johari Window is a tool used to map our own personality visibility. The Window will be used in the Awaken experience as a tool to assist participants to understand their perceived personality (introspective) and the perceptions of the participants peers. More…
