In my Mindful Leadership
clinics, there’s always someone who says they’re too busy to be mindful. But
not too busy to be stuck on auto-pilot doing mindless knee-jerk ‘busyness’
reactions, while focus flounders. We can convince ourselves we’re very busy and still not be
personally effective or productive. But at least it makes us feel important
it seems. Busyness is the new status symbol – saying we’re busy means we’re
important. Saying we’re not, means we’re not. How weird is that? If this sounds like it’s going round in circles that’s because it
is. Because it’s busy leaders who most need to give their heads a
break. To stop, pause, take a deep breath, and refocus. I suppose if
you’re a really busy leader, you won’t even be reading this because you’re
too busy. But you should. Mindful Leadership
in Action gives you
practical tools to take a mental and emotional rest-break from what I call
the attraction of distraction and a predilection to be preoccupied,
and reflect on what you’re doing – in terms of impacts on others, how helpful
or unhelpful your thoughts are, how present you are to your people, and the
quality of your actions as a leader. So if you’re a
busy leader, work for one, or have one as a colleague, register and come
along (if you’re not too busy that is). Learn to master those busy-thoughts
that drain your focus and make you too stressed out to think clearly. Oops
am I going in circles again? |

Mindfulness isn't a practice you encounter all that much in the
rush-’n-hurry of workplaces yet it actually underscores so many things that
matter for good leadership. Work, for many of us, seems to be a place where
action is valued over reflection; where we prefer speedy decisions over more
considered ones and mindful leaders are a pretty
rare species. Mindfulness is a hugely beneficial set of practices that can
help us cope more calmly and constructively with constant demands, busyness,
pressure and stress and the deluge of distractions we face every day that can
keep us in a state of continuously divided attention.

"I came along
to learn how to manage personal stressors in high-workload environments. I enjoyed
the relaxed nature and insights of the small-group conversations and went
away with a much better understanding of how to incorporate mindfulness into
both work and my private life." Thomas G Qld Parks

…looks at what it means and how to lead mindfully.
You don’t have to
formally meditate to be mindful. We’ll show you lots of
ways you can be more calm, clear, present and
emotionally balanced while going about your usual leadership work. Mindful Leadership in Action introduces 5 Mental Markers
and simple brain-training-tools to develop the mental disciplines of
presence, attention, self-reflection and focus into your everyday leader
activities. Apart from helping you to lift your performance, mindfulness can
also help leaders: x Make better
decisions and increase the quality of your actions x Be more present
and focused for the people you lead x Manage
distractions and mind-stray - ease anxiety and lessen stress x
Regain balance, curtail confusion and dampen down disruptive
emotions |
