Attivo: achieving high performance
World Cup Winner Jonny Wilkinson Inspires
Attivo Financial Planners at Exclusive Development Day
Attivo Lifestyle Financial Planning hosted an exceptional professional development event featuring rugby legend and World Cup winner Jonny Wilkinson, who serves as an Attivo Brand Ambassador. The comprehensive training day focused on enhancing the skills and knowledge of Attivo’s financial planning team through lessons in high performance and personal development.
Opening Session Sets the Tone
The day commenced with an opening address from Attivo Chairman Stephen Harper, who welcomed attendees and set the stage for what would prove to be an transformative learning experience. Harper then introduced Wilkinson, whose transition from elite sports to personal development coaching has made him a champion in achieving high performance.
Framework for Success
Wilkinson took centre stage to present his signature framework centred on three core principles: Acceptance, Awareness, and Responsibility. This methodology, developed through his experiences in high-pressure sporting environments, is specifically designed to support personal development and professional growth. The framework draws on Wilkinson’s extensive career, including his pivotal role in England’s 2003 Rugby World Cup victory.
Interactive Learning Experience
The afternoon programme featured intimate small-group sessions where Wilkinson worked directly with attendees, sharing insights from his career in elite sports. These interactive workshops focused on building resilience, developing leadership capabilities, and maintaining performance under pressure – skills directly applicable to the financial planning profession.
Complementing Wilkinson’s presentations, Attivo team members Jon Stevens, Paul Howard, and Fiona Prendergast delivered specialised sessions exploring individual components of the Acceptance, Awareness, and Responsibility framework, providing practical applications for day-to-day financial planning practice.
Commitment to Professional Excellence
The development day exemplifies Attivo’s ongoing commitment to enhancing the capabilities of their Lifestyle Financial Planners. By investing in continuous professional development and bringing world-class expertise to their team, Attivo demonstrates their dedication to ensuring clients receive the highest standard of financial planning advice.
The success of this inaugural development day with Jonny Wilkinson reinforces Attivo’s position as a forward-thinking financial planning firm that recognises the value of drawing inspiration and methodology from diverse fields of excellence.
