Take your professional conversations to the next level.
Hi and welcome!
While you are reading this sentence, I assume that you wish to know more about our online program "Core Qualities for Professionals".
First of all, I dearly wish to thank you for your interest. I am John Bax, the main facilitator of the program. I am an optimist by nature and a passionate adept of positive psychology. And I strongly believe in paying more attention to cultivating strengths than on improving weaknesses.
If you participate in this online program, you will get to know, understand and be able to apply one of the most effective ways to support people in discovering and building on their natural strengths.

Before each online practicing section, you will receive the theory of the WHY, WHAT, WHEN and HOW regarding the specific skills to be trained and mastered, including illustrative examples, videos and articles.
At the beginning of each online practicing section there will be a short assessment of your knowledge and understanding regarding the skills to be practiced. If needed a short update will follow to close eventual gaps.
At the end of each online practicing section there will be a take-away inventory and a presentation of the assignments to be executed before the next session.
