REIMAGINE THE FUTURE OF LEADERSHIP

A Mindful Approach to Organizational Development & Leadership

MINDFUL LEADERSHIP

No MBA or executive training could have prepared us for the degree of disruption and unpredictability we face, and these times require very different leadership capabilities if we are to steer our organizations and people towards a future we want.

Dr. Thulani

The workplace is changing, and leaders are discovering that reactive approaches to leadership is falling short. The disruption in our world presents an opportunity to open ourselves to new ways of leadership. If, as it seems, nothing will ever be the same, then we have a chance to effect something quite new.

We can spin our wheels in frustration, or we can walk through this door and see what lies on the other side. I assist clients and their teams to respond mindfully, and from a place of inner wisdom, to change, and uncertainty – to view disruption not as a negative, but as an invitation.
