Why the Self-Esteem Movement is in Decline

In the 20th century, the self-empowerment movement emerged as a cultural force, promising personal transformation, success, and happiness by cultivating confidence and self-esteem. The movement, rooted in self-esteem theories and popularized by self-help literature, captivated millions and influenced educational practices, corporate training, and personal development seminars. However, as the 21st century progresses, many ideas and methods are experiencing a downturn due to maturing perspectives on unfounded esteem theories, the inability to translate insights into actionable outcomes, and the lack of evidence for long-term efficacy.

 In the dynamic and interconnected world of the 21st century, the ability to influence has become a critical determinant of success. At Influential U, we recognize that influence is not just a valuable skill—it's a cornerstone for shaping the future. Here’s why the future belongs to those who master the art of influence.

Influence enables individuals to drive change. Whether in business, politics, or social movements, those with influence can mobilize resources, rally support, and lead initiatives that bring about significant transformations. As the world faces unprecedented challenges and opportunities, influential leaders will be at the forefront, guiding us toward innovative solutions and progressive changes.

Influential U co-founders and faculty deliver an immersive, practical experience that will elevate your professionalism and equip you to thrive in a world where the human touch remains irreplaceable. This workshop will help you cultivate essential skills needed to excel in 2024 and beyond.
