SMI Women in Leadership
The Need For SMI
The Personal Need
The greatest need in the world today is competent, caring people committed to positive values and goals. Countless people are searching for ways to better deal with today's pressures and challenges while enjoying fulfillment in all areas of their lives. Evidence is everywhere of individuals who want more from their lives:
- The inability to deal positively with stress - This dire personal need takes its toll on
all family members in incalculable ways while it also costs organizations billions
of dollars annually in absenteeism, illness, high turnover, low productivity,
and an alarming number of on-the-job accidents.
- The desire for more from life than just money - A survey of over 1000 people expressed these goals.
- 77% want to spend more time with family and friends
- 74% want to improve intellectually, emotionally, or physically
- 73% want to save money
- 66% want more free time to spend any way they please
- 61% want to make more money
- 59% want to pursue personal hobbies and travel

- In the future, more and more jobs will require professional thinking and reasoning skills as opposed to labor skills. This is completely reverse from 50 years ago.
- Survey after survey has found that companies have great to very great difficulty filling professional positions. More than 67% have difficulty finding technical and other skilled workers.
- The trend is to cut back and get more accomplished with fewer people. This means companies must employ self-motivated, competent people to take up the slack left by a shrinking staff.
- Of the new jobs in the next decade, 85% will be generated by companies that employ fewer than 1000 people. Ninety percent of all companies fall into this small and mid-size range and do not have self-motivation programs. They depend on outside resources such as SMI to provide this.
- Competition is becoming fiercer by the day. To effectively compete, you must constantly improve performance through self-motivation.
The message is clear! People must accelerate their development to make the required changes in their careers - or face the possibility of being left behind. Whereas continuing education and development of potential, skills, and talents were once considered the answer, today self-motivation is becoming even more important. Individuals at every level are searching for programs that will provide a winning edge.
SMI's self-motivation programs are an answer to one of the marketplace's greatest needs - to increase the productivity and quality of personal performance around the world.
