Peak performance is not simply the result of talent or opportunity; it is shaped by mindset, self-awareness, and the ability to adapt. The habits and beliefs carried into work can either accelerate progress or quietly limit potential.
Self-Awareness for Peak Performance is a two-day, in-person course that uncovers the mindsets and habits that define performance. Drawing on lessons from business, sport, and leadership, it explores how peak performers cultivate clarity of purpose, agility under pressure, and habits that reinforce growth.
During the course, you will examine empowering and limiting beliefs, practise strategies for breaking through barriers, and embed high-performance practices such as growth mindset, visualisation, and intentional goal-setting. The course also addresses communication and working styles, showing how flexibility in approach improves collaboration and impact in diverse settings.
By the end, you will walk away with a deeper awareness of strengths, blind spots, and untapped potential, along with the self-awareness to turn insight into action and the mindset to unlock your next level of performance.
This course will equip you to:

Michelle Ong is a certified professional coach with more than 20 years of experience running her own practice. She has worked with leaders and teams across sectors including civil service, healthcare, defence, pharmaceuticals, energy, banking, FMCG, media, international trade, and education.
Her coaching and facilitation approach is rooted in accelerated learning theories, with a strong focus on experiential methods and practical application. She creates interactive and participative environments that encourage collaboration, reflection, and growth.
Throughout her career, Michelle has focused on strengthening alignment between individual development and organisational goals. She is recognised for helping executives and managers enhance engagement, build stronger team dynamics, and sustain high performance.
“The facilitator was professional, engaging, and made every concept come alive through hands-on activities. She created an inclusive environment where everyone could participate and feel heard, encouraging open sharing and valuing all perspectives. Her feedback was constructive and immediately applicable.”
“The most impactful part of the course was exploring the difference between a fixed mindset and a growth mindset. It was eye-opening to see how restrictive beliefs can limit progress, while adopting a growth mindset fosters continuous learning and creativity, which are both essential for effective leadership.”
“Every topic provided eye-opening insight into how we can be more aware, not only of ourselves, but also of others. Ultimately, the course reminded me that self-awareness is about bringing out the best in both ourselves and our teams to become more effective leaders.”
This course is designed for professionals and emerging leaders who want to deepen their self-awareness, overcome mental performance barriers, and build the mindsets and habits needed to lead with clarity, authenticity, and impact. It is ideal for those ready to pause, reflect, and realign their inner drive with their professional aspirations.
You will learn how to recognise the beliefs and behaviours that either accelerate or limit your performance. The course helps you identify and challenge self-limiting mindsets, strengthen empowering habits, and apply tools for sustained personal growth. You will explore how purpose, mindset, and communication style shape your impact on others, and begin to embrace a growth-oriented mindset that elevates both individual and team performance.
You will take part in guided reflection exercises and experiential activities that reveal your natural strengths, blind spots, and behavioural patterns. Through real-world applications and group dialogue, you will practise strategies to shift unproductive mindsets, set purposeful goals, and communicate with greater self-awareness. Each activity is designed to help you translate personal insight into lasting behavioural change.
There are no prerequisites. This course is open to anyone seeking to enhance their self-understanding and performance, whether you are an individual contributor, manager, or business leader.
You will learn through a two-day, highly experiential and introspective workshop. The course includes self-awareness exercises, interactive games, facilitated debriefs, and coaching that connect personal insight to professional performance. Facilitators create a safe, open environment that encourages honest conversation and self-discovery, using experiential exercises that act as a mirror to reveal how beliefs and behaviours influence team dynamics. Each session is designed to provoke insight and help you practise new ways of thinking, leading, and acting in real time.
Unlike traditional leadership or personal development courses, this experience begins with self-mastery, helping you understand how your inner beliefs, habits, and emotions directly shape your external results. It focuses on self-awareness as the foundation for peak performance and authentic leadership. Participants often describe the experience as transformative, highlighting how the facilitator’s empathetic and energetic approach, combined with mirror-like exercises, makes deep self-work both practical and immediately relevant to the workplace.
