Just finished Mindful Leadership, the nine ways to self-awareness, transforming yourself, and inspiring others. Highly recommend it to any leader who finds him/herself struggling to get it all done (and I believe that is just about all of us). Key abilities of a mindful leader:
- Stay calm in the face of stressful situations/difficult decisions
- Understand what drives you, how you think and feel, so your judgement is clear
- Be present – listen, don’t judge
- Stay positive, believe that you can make a difference
- Remember “this too shall pass”. Get some perspective
