Mindful Men:

How others need you to lead in this season of uncertainty

 

Consider how many people you know right now that actively earn your trust, give you compassion and inspire hope in you on a consistent basis.  Although we live in a culture where many leaders’ visions outpace their real world behaviors. Many do not express all the Big 4 capacities needed to effectively lead.

Now more than ever before, we need leaders who can quickly respond to social, emotional and performance issues of their collective team. We see a lot of leadership programs specifically to empower women, but very few that are tailored for men.  Mindful Men is a rare program designed to help men promote, build & sustain mindful teams & communities, raise their awareness and tackle their biggest blindspot, and bring more energy, power & compassion to those they serve.

Program components offer a unique, confidential, highly individualized experience for male executives to get better at

  • Communicating in a way that engages and leads others
  • Reducing cognitive bias and superficial dynamics at work and in your personal relationships
  • Making choices on the spot that bring people together
  • Taking responsibility without burning-out
  • Inviting others to genuinely connect on a deeper level

It provides a strategic assessment, an innovative, dynamic group learning format, and tools that can be immediately implemented for quick, prosocial “wins.”

 

Telling Yourself The Truth 

Discerning your Conditioning from Your Conditions…and your Code

Come Celebrate with our conscious citizens the 2nd edition, and new and improved, release of THE LETTER CODE.  Together we are going to clarify what “compatibility” looks, feels and acts like. Intimacy in our contemporary culture isn’t as straight forward as we assume, wish it would be, or miss from previous eras. Quickly idenitfy and name your core needs in intimate relationships, and ways to cultivate your needs to be met, as well as pinpoint the major vulnerabilities you’ll encounter on the path for powerful partnership.

Community can’t be bought and it can’t be sold.

It can developed, sustained or drained.

“How are you part of the problem in your community?

“How are you part of the solution in your community?

How are you sustaining your community?

Remote Workforce Hacks

The transition from traditional work to remote work often is bumpy. Initial productivity drops, and poor time management escalates. Disengagement is probable without evidenced based guidance on how to structure expectations, define desired outcomes, and remain socially relevant.  In this season, the workforce at every level is at risk, or already burnt out. We can consciously reduce depersonalization, dampen emotional exhaustion and foster achievement with the right mindset and strategy.

We can sustain our connectivity and current level of performance remotely.
