LEADERSHIP FROM A MINDFUL PERSPECTIVE - BRIDGING BEING AND DOING

How do you lead from a present state, being mindful while still taking action and getting things done? This session will explore the concepts of leadership and mindfulness in order to suggest ways to bridge the states of “being” (i.e., existence) and “doing” (i.e., action). Activities and practices will be presented to include the following, while asking participants to consider options relevant to them. • ways to assess a horizontal (doing) vs. vertical (being) mode • the intersection between the two • choice point of bridging • getting things done in both states • everyday application examples This session will encourage you to deepen your understanding of yourself as a leader, and of how you support yourself in your alignment of your leadership.
