P. Leiter and The Power of Full Engagement by Jim Loehr and Tony Schwartz Dewey Schott Coaching and Consulting | dewey@dewey-schott.com | www.dewey-schott.com 11 Full Engagement Principles Managing energy, not time, is the key to high performance Full engagement requires drawing on four separate but related dimensions of energy: physical emotional, mental and spiritual. Because energy capacity diminishes with both overuse and underuse, we must learn to balance energy expenditure with intermittent energy renewal (cycles of work/rest, work/rest). To build capacity, we must push beyond our normal limits, training in the same systematic way that elite athletes do. Positive energy rituals—highly specific routines for managing energy— are key to full engagement and sustained high performance.

What are the risks involved? How will I track my progress? Which energy domain do I most need to address? What positive energy rituals can I adopt? How will I stay positive?
