Course Overview
This four day course is for leaders who want to inject longevity and sustainability into their work lives, prevent leadership burnout, and generate performance in their organisation - reliably and respectfully.
Mindfulness is about actively paying attention to what is actually happening in the moment, in order to respond with integrity and thus remain focused on our strategic results. This enhances our ability to succeed in today's ever more dynamic and complex world.
Today, leaders have been described as facing a VUCA environment: one that is volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous. Previous notions of control and change management are being questioned, and new capabilities are now required of leaders.
Previous research, although still limited in work contexts, suggests that people who practise mindfulness at work report an improved ability to communicate clearly and a better ability to handle workplace conflict; they respond more appropriately to stressful situations, show greater self-awareness and perhaps have a greater capacity for innovation.
Evidence suggests that mindfulness practitioners are more resilient and more emotionally intelligent - better able to 'read' themselves, others and particular contexts/environments.
Our broadest contention is that those who are more mindful have a greater capacity to flex their own mental and emotional states, which benefits themselves and their organisations.
We have developed this cutting-edge interactive workshop to help managers become less stressed and defensive, and consequently more resilient, emotionally intelligent, and authentic as leaders.
Course content includes: Leadership development modules, mindfulness activities, online reading, leadership assessments and certification.
