Character GPS workshops are divided into eight sessions, each representing an important discovery step in the process of building character to change lives. For each process step below, overall learning outcomes are defined. It is from this framework that the Adventure Roadmap for the workshop is created.
Our character development process is based on the belief that to achieve success in life, any individual must discover the following: personal responsibility for self, the value of purpose, the existence of their talents, a compelling personal vision, the need for self-discipline, the role of relationships and the essential skill of collaboration.
