Squirrel Sense™: A Return to Resourcefulness

*Pre-approved for 3 hours of General Credit by the Human Resources Certification Institute

Omnipresent for squirrels is intense competition for essential resources amid threatening conditions.  Yet these industrious little creatures overcome seemingly insurmountable barriers without flinching.

That they prevail is a result of their resourcefulness – a characteristic that can point the way to success for humans as well.  This session reminds attendees that resourcefulness is at the core of our success as a nation, as organizations, and as individuals.  A delightful yet substantive program, this motivational content is presented using short, cheerful analogies that refresh the American spirit by linking increased success to the behavior of squirrels.  Here are just 5 of the numerous characteristics referred to in this program.  Squirrels:

  • Aren’t intimidated by those larger than they are
  • Are undaunted by odds stacked heavily against them
  • Don’t wait around for help
  • Achieve the incredible because they’re willing to try what others believe is impossible
  • Are willing to turn themselves inside out to get what they need
     

Squirrel Sense™ is designed to help attendees discover options that will help them overcome an obstacle or an impasse.  In provoking participants to ask themselves the right questions and stimulating them to excavate buried opportunities, Squirrel Sense™ will forge a return to resourcefulness by all who hear it.
