HBA NEW ENGLAND REGION PRESENTS

Becoming a Mindful Leader

Mindfulness isn't just a popular trend your friend tells you will decrease stress. It is a powerful tool that can alter fundamental brain patterns that increase discipline and focus, attributes that are critical to success as a leader. In fact, large companies such as Google, Aetna, and General Mills have been implementing mindfulness programs over the years. Employees see an increase in productivity, decision-making, listening, and emotional intelligence.

This program will unite Fit to Lead members with the greater HBA New England Region to introduce basic principles and practices of mindfulness. In this highly interactive and experiential session, participants will practice various mindfulness techniques and learn best practices for starting and maintaining a mindfulness practice. They will learn how this practice can bolster performance and well-being inside and outside the workplace.
