Stirring up conversations under the theme for the training, Mrs Rita Krampah, a seasoned corporate trainer in her address emphasised the importance of developing self-confidence through positive self-talk. She shared various affirmative phrases and initiatives that could inspire individuals, ultimately fostering steady growth in their confidence and abilities.
Drawing from her personal experiences with positive self-talk, Mrs. Krampah stated: “My crucible transformed me. It will transform you if you leverage the opportunities it presents to build confidence in yourself. Don’t personalise negative perceptions.” She went on to outline nine ways to identify and mitigate negative thought patterns that trouble female employees especially at workplaces and homes where they spend most of their time.
The Managing Director of Vivo Energy Ghana, Mr. Jean-Michel Arlandis in his remark, inspired female participants to confidently embrace their potential, overcome challenges and reassured them of the company’s support. “This initiative is more than just a training programme. As a company committed to the promotion of female diversity and inclusion, will continue to provide support and create an enabling environment for women to take charge of their own growth and drive positive change within our organisation and beyond,” he said.
To foster individual involvement, the session included a group discussion where employees were actively engaged in exploring and practicing positive self-talk techniques. This interactive segment allowed participants to share their experiences, learn from one another, and strengthen the day’s lessons.
