The Bob Conklin Legacy |
|
|
 AiA
was developed by Bob Conklin in 1967. Both his training
philosophy, and his training methods were unsurpassed. His innovative AiA program was ahead of its time, and launched many
of us into a fine career in the human resource development industry. For
those of us who had the privilege of learning from the Master, AiA became our life and our living.
From him, we learned some very
important training concepts:
- All development is self-development
- People learn only what they want
to learn, when they want to learn it.
- Before people can change their behavior,
they first have to change their thinking.
- Life is an extension of your thoughts;
you can never escape yourself.
- To gain lasting results from training,
participants need spaced repetition of the learning concepts,
presented in a spiral fashion, for a minimum of 30 hours.
So there you have it. Short term
"event based training" simply doesn't work. You need
"a process" - "a system" in place to accomplish
your objectives. The 30 hour AiA System offers lasting results.
Now, AiA has been updated and re-introduced for the 21st.
Century.
We all Benefit! It's practical! It's Easy!
And, It's for Everyone!
And it's only $125 per person for 30 hours of classroom training.
Won't you join us in taking AiA to the next level - 50 years
into the future, and beyond? You too can be a protege
of the Conklin AiA methods. You too can present AiA.
We'll show you how!

AiA Classic - 2006 |

In 1957, Bob Conklin was traveling
on a train from Minneapolis to St Louis. In a moment
of inspiration, he envisioned these charts, and sketched them
on a napkin. They stand today as the foundation for AiA Classic.

AiA Classic Quotes
|
|
I Am Your Master
I can make you rise or fall.
I can work for you or against you.
I can make you a success or failure.
I control the way you feel and the way you act.
I can make you work, laugh, love.
I can make your heart sing with
joy. . . excitement. . . elation.
Or, I can make you wretched . . . dejected . . . morbid.
I can make you sick . . . listless.
I can be as a shackle . . . heavy
. . . attached . . . burdensome.
Or, I can be as the prism's hue . . .
dancing . . . bright . . . fleeting . . .
lost forever unless captured by
pen and purpose.
I can be nurtured and grown to be
great and beautiful . . .
seen by the eyes of others
through action in you.
I can never be removed . . . only replaced.
I am a THOUGHT!
Why not know me better?
~ By Bob Conklin,
Author of Adventures in Attitudes - 1967
~
"Thinking Precedes Behavior.
To change Behavior . . .
Change one's thinking!"
~
The greatest discovery of this generation is that people can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind. ~ William James
~
The last of human freedoms is the ability to choose one's attitudes in any given set of circumstances.
~ Victor Frankl
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then,
is not an act,
but a habit.
~ Aristotle

AiA Participant Testimonials:
"AiA is dynamic, strong, well packaged, clear, and concise - an energy builder for anyone's life in these stressful times."
The content and methodology of AiA is superb. I have been a therapist/coach for years, and have tried to share this message with my clients. By using AiA I will be able to reach more people, more effectively, and for less cost to the client."
"AiA is the Cadillac of the training industry."
"AiA has tremendous organizational possibilities for my company."
"The time I've spent in AiA is the most valuable of my entire life. It has provided me a new starting point for me personally, professionally, spiritually and socially. Thank You!"
"Not until you have learned to "Choose
Your Attitudes"
will you really have the power
and freedom to be your own person,
capable of determining and achieving
your goals and dreams."
"Most people believe
attitudes just happen.
They don't!
The thoughts we hold in our mind over time become our attitudes.
These attitudes become the blueprint for our experiences.
Negative attitudes,
full of fear and doubt,
reinforce negative, unproductive,
self-defeating behaviors.
But thinking positively creates
positive attitudes, responses and feelings to the people
and events around us.
It's not easy to change
our negative attitudes.
It takes time! It takes practice!
But the joy and success we experience when we act, instead
of react, when we see opportunity, instead of problems,
is the
greatest gift
we can give ourselves.
~
"To affirm anything is to state that it is so, and
to maintain this as being true in the face of all evidence
to the contrary. "repeating an affirmation is leading
the mind to that state of consciousness where it accepts
that which it wishes to believe ~ Earnest Holmes
So within you is your mind -
an intricate computer that stores the thoughts that you
choose day by day. These thoughts are the molds that
process and shape your life. Wise sages of all time
have recognized this. ~ Marcus Aurelius
