Most extraordinary things in the world are done by ordinary people who have three things in common. These are not special gifts or talents, but innate abilities that can be identified and developed in everyone. High performing individuals and teams are:
Passion powered: They are clear and connected to what really matters to them and why. This emotional connection provides access to a high level of energy, creative problem solving and a willingness to persevere in the face of overwhelming odds.
Vision guided: They have a crystal clear image of the goal, the factors influencing the goal and the steps required get there.
Action oriented: They have a plan with feedback, support and daily practices that effectively move them one step closer to their goal each day.
Marilyn King is a two-time Olympic Pentathlete, Exceptional Human Performance expert, Peace enthusiast, Founder of Way Beyond Sports and the Peace Team, a global systemic change initiative. Following a serious car accident in 1979 Marilyn was unable to train for the 1980 Olympic Games so she used visualization and mental rehearsal to prepare herself for competition through the extraordinary power of her mind. She finished second in the Olympic trials for her third Olympic Team without physical training. This experience and knowledge set her on a 35-year career as an expert in exceptional human performance where she has taught Olympian Thinking from the classroom to the Board Room. Marilyn has used this experience, combined with participation in an international Think Tank on the role of business in peacebuilding, to do her most pioneering work using the prestige of Olympians around the world and her experience to Found the Olympian Peace Team and to collaborate with the United Nations to promote peace in the world.
