True Source:
Every concept in this book grew out of what I’ve experienced, applied, dismantled or evolved from what I’ve learned from other people.
I was lucky to be thrown into the world of personal development for my own life-altering experience in a program called SuperCamp1 at age 15. At 16, I was teaching teachers in my school how they could do it better, at 16 being coached by masters on how to facilitate transformative experiences for others, at 22, teaching others how to teach and facilitate, and by 28 co-authored my first book on it. I was jokingly referred to as the poster kid for this work as it seemed that I grew up in it. I’ve been teaching the concepts in this book in some form for over twenty years.
While I’m creating new distinctions and tools all the time, much of what I teach, captured in this book, is work that’s become part of who I am over decades of teaching and coaching it. Some of these concepts have been in the self-development world for years and I’m giving them new distinctions and application to your world as a leader here. Some are evolutions of concepts I co-created or learned with other master coaches.
While I’ve noted sources and experts for many concepts throughout the book, the following masters have had such indelible impact in my development and thinking that I still hear their voices in my head and my work every day, years later. Their influence is woven throughout this book, and if you don’t have their work on your shelf and in your practice, seek it out. They include (in alphabetical order, since they’re impossible to rank):
Linda Brown
Bobbi Deporter
Eric Jensen
Mark Reardon
Blair Singer
Maggie Weiss
To every one of you, thank you for your ruthless support, coaching, impact, collaboration and most of all- your shared commitment to what’s possible in the world.
Power whoosh of love and immeasurable gratitude, Sarah
Moving the Dial
by Blair Singer
The eternal quest in sports, in business and in life has always been the same—“how to get better.” How to eke out that extra dollar, extra productivity, extra edge.
I remember long, scorching runs up and down the hills and country roads of northeastern Ohio in the 1960s as our small cross-country team ran mile after mile, each of us looking for a few more seconds to ultimately shave off our times. We pushed, we sweated, we drove, we were up before daylight and still running as the sun slipped from view at the end of the day.
It was in those times that I learned the meaning of searching for that extra gear inside. All these years later, I have worked with thousands of organizations and hundreds of thousands of individuals, helping them increase sales and build championship teams—all on the same quest. The goal is always the same: to ultimately “move the dial” or make a noticeable change in results.
Certainly pushing harder, becoming more skilled, more disciplined and invoking tighter accountability would seem to drive better results. But what if there was another way?
Nearly every person I have ever met believes there is a bigger, better person inside of them. Whether they find it or not is another issue, but they all believe it to be true. The question is—how do you get to it? What if there was a way to move the dial without having to set
