Speaker: Paula Connolly, Certified Trainer and Facilitator with Facilitate Discovery.

Session: Over the past 2 years, the role of leaders has changed dramatically. We, as leaders, are now more involved in monitoring and promoting the health and well-being of our team members and in encouraging work-life balance than ever before. We are expected to lead with authenticity, empathy, and flexibility. That means we can no longer afford to have distracted minds, reacting instead of responding—we need to become mindful leaders to meet the challenges of today and the future.

Objectives:

• Explore what it means to be a mindful leader and why it’s important for success
• Build awareness of how distracted we really are when we thought we were focused
• Explore why multi-tasking is a myth
• Discover how to stop reacting on autopilot and to train your mind to lead with focus and clarity
