Mission
Positive PD Mind Map

 

 

Positive PD was created by Cath Currie to offer bespoke and tailored solutions for organisations and individuals. Solutions can be coaching (one-to-one or small group) or training and facilitation in-house, by arrangement and through open courses. We are passionate about developing potential and self-awareness to realise personal and professional goals

As the only consultancy in Scotland accredited to offer de Bono Courses for Education schools can become officially accredited ‘de Bono Thinking Schools’ when staff undertake one of our de Bono courses and evidence implementation in curriculum and management. We became licensed providers of Buzan Mind Map training in 2002.  Officially accredited training ensures the integrity and quality of the product is maintained.

 

 

Unique Selling Points

 The range of experience in people development which comes with our learning and development! At a practical level, dealing face-to-face with individuals, families and professionals in varied contexts, we understand the motivators and barriers which impact on people development. At a theoretical level we have a very extensive knowledge base yet continually seek to build on this.

We value and respect individuality in thinking and learning at all ages and stages and consider this a vital, feature of a learning and personal development process.

Using a toolkit for Accelerated Learning and Creative Thinking, individuals discover potential and become confident, competent and comfortable in thinking and problem-solving.
