What does it mean to have an Open Mind?

An open mind isn't about being agreeable or accepting everything. It's about having:​

  1. Awareness - Seeing the subconscious patterns and beliefs driving our behaviour

  2. Flexibility - Being able to shift perspective when old approaches aren't working

  3. Growth - Embracing challenge and feedback as fuel for growth & development

  4. Possibility - Operating from a growth mindset, rather than a fixed orientation.

Our Credibility & Results 

The Open Mind Institute has a longstanding  partnership with the University of Queensland's School of Psychology,  enabling our range of metric tools and assessments that form an integral part of our coaching programs and workshops.

Executive Coaching Testimonial

"Paul has been absolutely life changing for me...words that I do not write lightly by any stretch of the imagination.
Paul's guidance, with both honest and insightful feedback, has enabled me to rebalance my goals, bring energy back into both my professional and personal life (which let's face it, were pretty depleted post covid) and be firmly back in control of living the life that I want to live. And all of this has been self-led which is both incredibly empowering and even more importantly, sustainable. And in case you were wondering...Paul keeps it real!"
