Our CPD Accredited Mind Management Skills for Life Programme has been developed to help people to gain an in-depth insight into their mind using The Chimp Model.

Designed by Professor Steve Peters for a ‘first of its kind’ scientific research trial. Our flagship 8 workshop programme gives organisations and individuals comprehensive access to our ground-breaking model. The programme helps participants to understand and manage their mind more effectively; resulting in improved psychological wellbeing and optimised personal and professional performance.

What others say about the Programme

“Being on the Chimp Management CPD has had a real impact on the way I see myself and situations in my life. In both my professional and personal life I feel more able to manage difficult situations and the emotions that they evoke. Professionally I have found greater happiness within my role due to the way I now see myself and how I now deal with situations that arise during the day (especially ones that are beyond my control). On a personal level I have learnt that I need to be more proactive about what happens in my life rather than reactive. I am trying to ensure that I have daily personal development time, recording this in written form, enabling me to plan ahead and then reflect later. I feel, most of the time, (still some work to do on some of my gremlins) I am more in control of my chimp and find myself saying “stop” when I know that she is hijacking situations with unhelpful emotional thoughts.”.

“It has helped me to consider my reactions to events.  I found the perception versus reality a really useful tool to make me pause and think about how I am responding to an event.“

“It has given me confidence in testing environments to find a solution for all concerned.“

“I think the most helpful and amazing thing has been the truths and values on my stone of life. I am still working at focusing on these but they have already helped me to genuinely stop worrying about the things that I cannot change. This is something that for the last 30 years I have really struggled with so this has felt like a real breakthrough for me“

“Before undergoing this training, a considerable amount of my own precious time would be wasted reflecting on situations that I could not change. This would largely involve questioning my own judgements (in a disparaging way), along with my own performance and outcomes. Since discovering the Chimp model, I now know that it was my chimp hard at work. Chipping away at my confidence and trying to hijack my resilience.“
