Personal performance

Mindfulness training enables you to consistently perform at your authentic best.
You will learn how your mind works by developing a deeper understanding of your patterns of thinking and associated feelings and behaviours. Specifically you will see more clearly which mental processes support or undermine your performance. Relating this enhanced self-awareness to your values and strengths will enable you to choose actions that are intrinsically motivating and meaningful.

Changing your relationship to internal and external events will develop resilience and enable you to perform well even in challenging times. Controlling your attentional resources more effectively will enhance your fundamental sense of control in times of volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity.

By reducing mind wandering and focussing valuable brain resources on priorities you will manage your energy levels more efficiently, more consistently and more productively. With greater levels of sustained concentration you are able to work more accurately and make fewer errors. This refreshing approach will generate the right conditions to support creativity and allow space for insights to emerge.

Team performance

Mindfulness training brings teams together to accelerate their development.
Your teams will learn how to work more flexibly and collaboratively to improve performance and increase productivity. As each and every team member develops a deeper awareness of their own mental processes they will discover increasingly more skilful ways of interrelating and reducing conflict. Enhancing emotional intelligence will support effective working relationships, communication and generate more cooperative team dynamics.

Mindful Leaders

Mindfulness training enables you to lead your teams authentically and sustainably.
You will learn how to lead teams through challenge and change by adopting a growth mind-set. Seeing complex situations with greater clarity and focus will enable you to respond more effectively to multi-faceted and difficult situations as they emerge. Being able to step back and see the bigger picture will assist strategic thinking.
Understanding your own mental process supports you in resisting cognitive biases in decision making and problem solving.
