How
focus, presence & attention can re-balance your leadership Mindfulness
from a practical leadership perspective |
||||||||
|
Gooday – Bill Cropper here from The Change Forum. Have you
ever wondered what’s behind many of the conflicts and difficulties leaders
struggle with? I’m more and more convinced they trace-back to unhelpful,
anxiety-creating, and often downright destructive thoughts we continually
mull-over in our minds. OK. Granted that problems are a leader’s lot and worries
are part of the job – maybe. But the mental
state we approach them in is massively important – for the quality of our
actions, for making good decisions, for relieving stress, and for retaining
our sanity. Find out how focus, presence and attention can re-balance
your leadership approach… I still have places on my Mindful Leadership in Action program
coming to CAIRNS July 7, MACKAY July 17,
and also BRISBANE on July
13. I approach mindfulness from a practical leadership
perspective. It’s not just another meditation program. I’ll show you 5 Mental Markers of Mindfulness to identify down-to-earth,
work-based actions you can apply in an everyday leader context. Curious? Click here for a flyer and registration information for my upcoming clinic. Oh – and mates rates apply too –
information on-line. “Beneficial to all who want to sharpen
their leadership skills through better focus. Great content, very useful
guidebook, good tools and a faultless presentation.” Ric Favini Resource Manager RoadTek |

Why is
mindfulness a "must-have" for managers to lead well at work?
Well, putting aside the stress relief and well-being benefits for a
moment, some immediate practical paybacks for leaders in a work context are: · Mindfulness
can help train a leader's brain to learn to focus full attention on what
matters most in a situation and see things more clearly · It
aids mental clarity by freeing leaders from the fog of unhelpful thoughts and
the dead-weight of preconceptions, prejudicial thinking or tyrannous
thought traps · It
also increases mental discipline, emotional balance, reduces reactivity
and enhances our quality of action · It
facilitates leaders to see things systemically - to comprehend subtle
patterns of interrelationships between seemingly separate factors · It
forms the foundation on which to build your emotional and social intelligence
capabilities that help leaders cultivate connectivity and compassion When you think about it, a major mission of leaders is to
help their people focus – to stay engaged and on-task – so they can apply
themselves to produce good results, relatively free of stress, distraction or
upset. Leaders also spend a lot of time helping others determine
what their focus should be - what to expend energy on. But before they can
help like this, they need to work on setting aside their own distractions and
focusing their own attention first. Personally, mindfulness matters to me because we all struggle
in one way or another with the attraction of distraction and an emotional
tumble-dryer of thoughts… If
you’re looking for ways to enhance the quality of your leadership actions and
sharpen your focus and thinking capacity, Mindful
Leadership in Action may provide a pertinent platform for you… Perhaps I’ll see you at one of my clinics? |
