Lunch and Learn with Lindsay – Issue 187: The PAS Model to boost your self esteem


Welcome to 🍏Lunch N Learn with Lindsay🍏 Issue 187.

Last week’s Issue spoke about the link between self esteem and being adept at influencing and persuading. If you missed this Issue, you can read it here.

Today’s Issue shares another self-esteem booster. 

I am encouraging you to hone in on the “Strengths” quadrant of a Personal SWOT exercise. Apply the PAS Model to identify:

P = 3 Personality traits that you consider to be your strengths

A = 3 Attributes that you consider to be your strengths and

S = 3 Successes that you are proud to have.  

I’m sure you’ll agree, this is a hugely effective little exercise for a quick self-esteem book! 

Remember also the benefit of conducting a FULL Personal SWOT exercise to gain a snapshot of YOU to help with advice and insights for your personal and professional development.  You can read more here. 

As an advocate of conducting regular Personal SWOTs, I am sharing this topic during my speaking Session at The PA Show on 29th February. I really hope you’ll be able to join me.  Check out my latest LinkedIn post on this here which shares a video about the Session. 

Book your place at the Show using the link here and quote YOUREX10 to claim 10% off paid sessions.  Me and Josh will be on Stand F22P welcoming clients old and new and sharing details of our newest offering, The Learning Passport.  We’d love to see you in person!  We’re also sharing some news about the Show here.

I had the pleasure of a one-to-one training session with Lindsay, Founder & Director of Your Excellency Limited today. The topic was Communicate with IMPACT and the session was brilliant. It was engaging, informative and relaxed with lots of interesting conversation. I came away from my time with Lindsay having learnt new skills which I am sure I will put to good use in both my working and personal like. I would highly recommend Your Excellency Limited.

Lindsay is a true well rounded training professional who has the right amount of past experience to back up what she is talking about and can link the subjects into the PA/EA sector perfectly. I was inspired and well informed after spending two out of a four day course with her. Thank you.

I took a course on project management for administrative professionals with Malcolm Taylor, a great teacher and a fantastic communicator. The contents were practical and useful, with real examples and activities that we could relate to our own professional experience. I also learnt a lot from the other students.

I recently undertook Level 4 Office & Administration Management training with Lindsay from Your Excellency and completed all 3 training modules and assignments to complete the Award over the last year. The training gave me so much confidence and made me want to keep coming back for more. Lindsay's teaching style made me feel so at ease. I learnt so much - not just about how to improve as a PA/Office Manager and how valuable the role is, but I also learnt a lot about myself which gave me the confidence boost, and what I needed, to progress my career. 10/10 - best training I've ever had!

SFJ Awards - Level 4 Certificate in Office & Administration Management. I can't fault the level of training and support I received from Lindsay and Malcolm at Your Excellency Ltd. I received face to face and virtual training to achieve this qualification and both were presented in a professional, friendly and comprehensive manner. The support and guidance I needed was always to hand. This was the first qualification I had undertaken for around 30 years so I was a little apprehensive. That was all laid to rest with the belief and encouragement I received from the trainers. I am so proud of myself and would highly recommend Your Excellency Ltd to all.

I attended “How to be a PA with PA – Perfect Awareness". I was a little unsure at first but it turned out to be one of the best courses I have attended for a while. Lindsay put our small group at ease instantly and adapted well when a power outage meant we didn’t have a screen. The course was the perfect mix of group discussions, work in pairs, independent ideas and fun tasks. I found out a lot about NLP and have come away with helpful tools, ideas ad thoughts and I found out a few things about myself as well. I would definitely recommend Your Excellency

We recently had two virtual Lunch and Learn sessions with Lindsay. The sessions were truly interesting, fun and engaging. The materials and Lindsay’s knowledge were top notch. Lindsay tailored the content of the sessions to ensure our outcomes were achieved – she really took on board our goals and personalised the training for our needs. The whole team is looking forward to putting our learning into action. I wouldn’t hesitate to train with Your Excellency again in the future.

I have been running Queen Bee with my business partner for over 5 years, but have always taken a back seat with the finances. Taking part in the Principles of Finance course was my way of getting a grip on some of the basics, so that I could participate more fully in the financial decisions of the company and better understand my clients’ businesses. Malcolm really de-mystified a lot of the finance jargon and I came away feeling far more confident about tackling things such as Balance Sheets, P&L and forecasting. The worksheets were really helpful and will be a great reference tool for me in the future. I’m really pleased that I took the time to do the course – it was well overdue!
