Sinossi

Since the fall of 2008 we have seen trillions of dollars disappear  from the North American economy. Never in recent history have we  had so much and lost so much. At the same time, many have been  deeply disappointed in their leaders, whether they are business  leaders, government leaders, celebrities, or top athletes. It seems  as if the demands of this new world order are beyond the ability of  most who occupy leadership positions.            At times like these, anyone in a  leadership position is scrutinized and put under a microscope.  There are countless resources advocating different leadership  styles, but these styles tend to be faddish. Leaders searching for  solutions often adopt whatever style is currently in vogue;  however, then they cease to be authentic. This inevitably leads to  inconsistent decisions, confusion, and unhappy employees who  recognize that the leader is hiding behind a facade.       Mindful Leadership introduces  you to Mindfulness Meditation, a tool that you can use anytime,  anywhere-no chanting or patchouli required-to achieve focus,  clarity, authenticity, and the presence of mind to face the reality  of any situation. Mindfulness enables a leader to respond to a  situation as it arises, to respond to the reality of constant  change from a place of deep calm and focus, and to communicate  clearly.       Seriously, meditation and business do  mix, and Mindfulness is taking over boardrooms everywhere.  Companies such as Google, Apple, AOL, Xerox, Toyota, Volvo, IBM,  Aetna International, RBC, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, and Ford  already encourage their employees to use meditation to help them  become calmer and more effective. Benefits of Mindfulness  Meditation in the worlds of business and leadership include:    Greater focus and concentration  Improved time management  Improved judgment and decision making  An enhanced ability to anticipate and serve client needs  Enhanced team effectiveness  Greater innovation and inspiration  Greater productivity  Better planning for the future while competing in the  present  Increased ability to deal effectively with stress         Mindful Leadership explains the 8  ways in which leaders can incorporate Mindfulness into every aspect  of their lives, allowing them to reduce stress, to maintain  awareness and focus, and to optimize their effectiveness and  decision making, both personally and professionally.
