Increasingly, organizations need to calibrate cultures and adjust operating procedures to handle change. Focus is shifting from mere performance to including relations, which emphazises the need for personal development as part of professionalism. Increased self-awareness, structured reflection, and the capacity to self-lead and manage  your attention enable  questioning of and acting from new perspectives.

The programme offers:

  • Research-based knowledge on how and why self-leadership and conscious presence make you a better leader
  • Tools and tips on how to manage your attention, on your own and with others, based on Mindfulness and Systemic Organizational Constellations
  • Training in self-awareness, conscious presence, reflection time and tapping into your courage to be able to use it in your work

Through active participation in exercises, you get access to tools that you have already started using. You also exchange experiences with other leaders who face similar challenges in their work.
