Victory Offices sits down with Michael Bartura, founder and CEO of Positive Neuroplasticity, to discuss how we can begin to understand and accept ourselves whilst finding value in a crisis like COVID-19.
Cate O’Connor interviews Michael Bartura and together they will be touching on the following key points:
- Do we ever know ourselves fully?
- Do we ever really know how others see us?
- What are the benefits of actually pursuing the removal of the comfortable but stagnating view of ourselves?
- How has COVID-19 affected you? What’s the biggest challenge for you right now?
- What is one goal in your life that COVID-19 is helping you achieve?
Michael has been involved in lifestyle education, health & wellness promotion, training and organisational development since the mid-Eighties. With decades of management experience across sectors in four continents, Michael brings to the table a well-refined cross-cultural mentoring capacity and a managerial acumen amassed in both not-for-profit and business contexts. He has extensive experience in Mindfulness practices and delivers insightful and engaging training seminars and group-work through nondenominational science-based methodologies.
In earlier years, Michael worked as a therapist and a trainer in clinics and centres in Australia, the UK, the US, and Canada. Later, he undertook senior managerial roles in international businesses and charities.
