“Inspired Success” to help re-vision, re-align, and re-focus your business on 18 August

• EPL Global presents insights from 11 most remarkable thought leaders Omar Khan has personally worked with

“Inspired Success” by global success coach Omar Saqib Khan, founder of EPL Global and Sensei Lanka, will be held on 18 August at Waters Edge, Battaramulla, from 9.30 a.m. to 4.30 p.m.

The top event will take participants through an exciting, trail-blazing, extraordinary tour of some of the most remarkable thought leaders Omar Khan has personally worked with, contributed with, and learned from. Khan will be joined by Ranjan De Silva, partner of EPL Global and Sensei Lanka.  

These are not generic lessons from their books or videos, but “live from the front-lines” of application: lessons, tools, insights and inspirations that you can immediately benefit and profit from, provoked by and evoked from Khan’s collaboration with them.

The thought leaders are: Leo Buscaglia, Robert Allen, Don Wolfe, M. Scott Peck, Tom Peters, Ron Kaufman, Edward de Bono, Dan Sullivan, Alan Weiss, Marshall Goldsmith and Lester Levenson.

Khan will be joined by Ranjan de Silva, his business partner and dear friend of many decades, who joined Khan from John Keells, inspired by Mastery of Self and the teachings of some of the thought leaders below, and has been on the front lines collaborating with Khan, as these insights and learnings have been crystallised, distilled and shared, across Asia and the world.

Each session will focus on one of these luminaries, and the most impactful, applicable lessons that Khan has gleaned and distilled from his interactions with them, and found to be most valuable around the world. Those joining “live” can participate in a far-ranging Q&A.

Leo Buscaglia is the man who got the copyright on the world “Love,” by publishing the first-ever book on the topic and embodying how we can live abundantly, courageously, empathically, creatively and originally. Khan’s interactions with Buscaglia set him off on a festival of living, loving and learning, and he will share some of the most impactful “ideas” and “applications” that can enrich and empower everyone.

Neuro-Linguistic Programming via Robert Allen and Don Wolfe was Khan’s first exposure in the early 90’s to the breakthrough genius of Bandler and Grinder, applied and focused to practical success, and with intuitive breakthroughs on creating purpose, dismantling negative past experiences, establishing rapport, choosing your ‘state’ and breaking through to freedom past any fears. Here Khan takes you behind the scenes to the wisdom that helped create “Mastery of Self.”

M. Scott Peck taught us how mental and emotional health are allied, he laid the groundwork for our understanding of emotional intelligence, he brought psychiatry and spirituality together, he taught us to embrace wonder and mystery, and build community past ego masks and across boundaries and divisions. Khan worked closely and intimately with Peck for many years and will share the animating wisdom of taking “The Road Less Travelled.”

Tom Peters brought management to vivid life, he rescued leadership practice from stale consulting models of “strategy” and “organisational structure.” Working with him and his company, Khan experienced why we need to rattle the cages of corporate complacency and challenge stale ways of thinking -- converting them into radical, creative, people-first innovation that liberates real enterprise value and breakthroughs.

Ron Kaufman is the service champion par excellence. And with their years of friendship and partnership, Khan will draw on Kaufman’s quirky commitment to how we create value for each other through sustained service, and by expressing our passion and imagination to make every “perception point” sing, across industries and geographies.

Edward de Bono literally created “lateral thinking.” And Khan’s long experience with his methods, and working with de Bono, adapting some of his thinking tools to create and leverage even deeper change, will be shared here, as we emerge with a mini-university of portable tools on provocative and parallel thinking as a way to create exceptional new design.

Dan Sullivan is truly “the Strategic Coach.” Khan worked with Sullivan’s tools for over 7 years and converted them into a powerful presentation called “Strategic Living” that people cite decades later. He also created adaptations for corporate success from these remarkable insights about how “the best get better” and how we can magnify measurable success while measurably reducing pointless stress.

Alan Weiss was Khan’s co-author on two books, has been a best-selling author for decades, the “consultant for consultants,” a remarkable contrarian, debunker of sloppy thinking and stale, outmoded formulaic responses. Khan’s work with Weiss has led to Khan’s own mentoring of countless leaders, consultants, and coaches, and here he will share with you marvellous strategies by which you can “thrive” no matter your occupation or role. Marshall Goldsmith is considered the world’s leading leadership coach, having created the “stakeholder based coaching” approach, and coaching people to come alive to our potential by supporting each other’s growth. 

From their presenting and brainstorming together, Khan will share some of the most dramatic ways you can powerfully ignite change leveraging Goldsmith’s leading insights.

Lester Levenson created “Releasing,” an application of “Mindfulness” that is both evolutionary and revolutionary as a way to “let go” of anything in the way of our full flourishing and vibrant “beingness,” or shall we say “being-fulness”? While Khan never met Levenson in person, he has worked for years with teachers who for decades were his direct disciples and apprentices. They helped interpret and translate the lessons from this living master. And Khan, from his work with them, has created perhaps the most far ranging integration of the master’s methods. You will experience a powerful “release” by which to cap this remarkable day.

Originally presented as an online course, you will also get preferred access to the 10-week, one hour per master, video recordings done by Khan for an intimate group, at a very special value. Thereby, you will be able to re-experience the key learnings and continue to integrate them into your life and success.
