Self-leadership is the ability to govern oneself by guiding one’s own actions and making successful decisions, guided by one’s own goals. If well trained, she can be a great ally in achieving better and better results and performance. In fact, by independently and consciously fixing the direction to be followed one feels the responsibility, greatly increasing the possibility of achieving the objectives. All without the stress typical of an "external" imposition. However, all this can become complicated when the environment around us does not put us in the best conditions: pressures, stress, demands above our ability to manage, can adversely affect distracting us from the road we have traced, with a significant impact on performance and results. How to escape external pressures and train your self-leadership? How to use self-determination to get the best from yourself and others? During this meeting, participants will have the opportunity to discuss the testimonies of speakers from the world of sport and psychology, deepening the challenges and benefits of self-leadership, both in life and at work. Through practical and concrete reflections, it will be possible to understand how, by eliminating external pressures and listening only to internal ones, the self-determination of the individual has a positive effect on the performance and results of each one.

• Josefa Idem, Olympic champion of Canoa, will explain us how to escape from external pressures and exercise their self-leadership. Through concrete practices and anecdotes related to her experience in sports, she will explain the theory of self-determination, highlighting the importance of empowering the individual to achieve better results and performance.
