Following the success of 3 Mindful Leader courses so far (50+ delegates from a wide range of organisations) we are running another programme in autumn 2015.
Mindfulness in the business world is moving from the fringe to the mainstream and now features as part of many leadership and management programmes. This open-access course is for business leaders and offers the opportunity to develop mindful practices in a time-effective format.
The course will give participants a deeper understanding of their own patterns of behaviour; will help people develop stress-reduction techniques; and improve creativity – all essential for meeting current workplace and leadership challenges.
“Try it and see. You will be amazed at the transformation.” – Sue Timson, Leading Edge
Why participate in this programme?
Mindfulness is a way of training your mind to be where you want it to be. “It’s like push ups for the brain” said one US Marine. Ancient wisdom, psychological research and modern neuroscience are combining powerfully to demonstrate the benefits of mindfulness for leaders at work. By incorporating mindfulness practices into your daily life you can experience:
Better health and well being
Clearer thinking
Enhanced communication
Improved leadership skills
Greater Emotional Intelligence (EQ)
Meaningful relationships at work and outside
More awareness of personal stress and how to manage it
When and where?
Over a period of 8 weeks participants will attend four sessions at Northumbrian Water, Durham.
Sessions run 8.30 – 11am. Coffee served from 8am.
You should also be prepared to commit to 20/30 minutes practice every day
