Is the Academy right for me? 
Our alumni say it changed their lives. Find answers to the 7 most frequently asked questions to decide if this training is for you.

“You learn all the things that are ESSENTIAL - for your life, career, rising and leading - that nobody ever tells you!"

 

That's how one of our alumni from Latvia described the Academy. Let's get more specific. Our Academy teaches you the tools, formulas and strategies you need to supercharge your career. We tend to have 4 types of people who thrive in the Rise Academy. If you struggle with one - or multiple - of the following things, you should take this training: 

 

The searchers: 

• The searchers joined because they wonder “what’s next for me?”, “what’s my path?” and “what could be my next career step?”.

• They say they left the Rise Academy with new perspectives, clarity, focus, energy, new options and an action plan.

 

The changers: 

• The changers joined to solve a challenging or new situation. This can be “I want to finally see my ideas become reality and make a difference”, or “I just started a new role/new job/at a new organisation and I want to make sure I succeed”, "my organisation undergoes change I need to navigate", or “I am taking over new leadership responsibilities and want to become a better leader others want to follow”, or “I am having kids/had kids and I need to figure out a different way of working in this new phase of my life”. 

• They say they left the Rise Academy with a much stronger ability to strategise, the tools to establish yourself, understand and influence others, lead effectively and inspire action, the clarity on what is and isn’t important to you and the energy to solve your next challenge.
   

The stuck Risers: 

• The stuck Risers joined to get unstuck. You are frustrated with things - or people - at work. You realise that just working hard or having great ideas isn't enough, you don’t seem to get ahead as quickly as you want, you get pushed down and held back by difficult colleagues or bosses, you feel overlooked, you know you stay under what you could achieve.

• They say they left the Rise Academy with clarity about what the problem is and how to fix it, the strategies to get where you want to be, promotions, payrises and funding to put your ideas into practice, the tools to show how good you are, the confidence to get into the rooms of power and deal with power and power people, and the energy to stand up for yourself.

 

The self critics:  

• The self critics joined to let go of self-doubt and become more self-confident. To stop holding yourself back, to stop undermining your own successes, to stop constantly questioning yourself (or way too often) and stop worrying “what if I am not enough?” (good enough, ready enough, right enough), to no longer make yourself smaller than you are, all of which leads to you hitting the brakes.

• They say they left the Rise Academy with your self-esteem unlocked, the confidence to make a difference, more courage + the strategies to stand up and advocate for what you believe in, higher ambitions, the tools to release the insecurities and handbreaks holding you back, a stronger sense of self-worth and the energy to be your true self at work!
