Riassunto

MINDFUL LEADERS: A SELF-COACHING GUIDE & TOOLKIT Mindful leaders are powerful leaders. They lead from the inside out—with self-awareness, authenticity, compassion, vision, and wisdom. Mindfulness is a state of optimal functioning—characterized by clarity, presence, flexibility, and control. We all have the natural ability to live in this state but few do. It takes practice. Whether you lead by example, manage a small team, or are an executive of a multi-national enterprise, this workbook equips you with the tools to cultivate mindful leadership. These practical techniques are based on a modern view of mindfulness, including mindfulness practices with and without meditation. They are developed from decades of research on mindfulness through disciplines such as positive psychology, management studies, sports psychology, and neuroscience, and such universities as Harvard, University of Michigan, and Stanford. This book provides simple, straightforward tools for learning some essential practices of mindful leadership. You will learn to: · Step out of conditioned behaviors, unconscious biases, and reactivity. · See the bigger perspective. · Maintain focus and clarity in the midst of high stakes challenges. · Improve decision-making and judgment. · Direct positive conflict and orient others toward solutions. · Unlock your potential to be a mindful leader. · Transform your own life, your team, your organization, and the world with mindfulness.
