1. What Is Our Approach to the Programs People Come on?
Our aim is that you are able to effectively optimise any investment of time, money and effort that you make in yourself, in line with your growth and development as a person. At some point, some of you may invest in our more advanced development programs, but our aim is always for you to optimise results in your life, in direct proportion to your investment of time, money and effort. Read More.
2. What Can You Expect From Our Programs?
Everyone is unique so everyone’s development program with us is unique. You will have a different set of aspirations and challenges from someone else. So your development journey will have a different combination of mentoring programs/seminars and mastermind groups from someone else.
We do not hype people up over a weekend and send them back to their regular lives. This just doesn’t work. We design our programs to have ongoing mentoring and mastermind support to help you follow through and apply what you learn.
Building people and relationships is at the heart of everything we do. For you to optimise your success in any endeavour you can only do so with and through other people. So being great with people is essential. Every program we run will offer you the opportunity to build, connect and share with other like-hearted individuals.
To truly habitualise what we learn we must apply it. Each development program will help you to experientially apply what you’re learning in your life, career or business, every step of the way.
We appreciate too that people are busy, often balancing a full-time job, with a family, while trying to develop themselves on the side. We’ll tailor our development programs to help you get the most out of the time you have available and prioritise it in the best way possible.

5. Why Would it Be Valuable to Embark on a Development Program?
A Book or the Internet Alone Just Won’t Do it – The vast majority of people who want to make a change and progress in their lives, careers or businesses have often read a book on the topic or looked it up online. This is valuable, but alone it just won’t help you to habitualise and apply what you learn.
The Right People With the Right Skills & Knowledge – Quite simply, you cannot replace learning from the right people with the right knowledge and skills, who are already experienced in the area where you want to develop.
Immersion Is Essential – Shifting old habits and making a significant change in our lives requires significantly different actions, along with intensity. It requires immersion. Immersing yourself in the learning environment of a development program, along with the support of mentoring and a mastermind group will give you that immersion.
6. What Types of People Come on These Programs?
We work with people from all walks of life, from all backgrounds. From ex-head teachers, to designers, university students, directors, bankers, plumbers, etc etc…
What is common however, is everyone is absolutely committed to their own growth and development and to helping others succeed too. All of our staff, mentors and facilitators began their journey with us on a program themselves and remained involved because they saw the improvements in their own lives, careers and businesses.
7. When & Where Do the Programs Run?
Our programs run consistently throughout the year. There will be particular start dates to each program, however we will always be able to get you started right away because every program starts with preparation work. This is to ensure you get the most out of the program once you’re on it.
8. How Can You Learn More About Embarking on a Lighthouse International Development Program?
The starting point is to understand your wants, needs, aspirations and challenges. We can’t explicity define what mentoring and what programs are best for you until we understand more about you.
Equally, everyone has gaps in their awareness, knowledge and skills somewhere along the line. Our assessments will help you identify for yourself what those gaps are even if you then choose not to get involved in any development program with us.
