Effective leaders are self aware and empower those they influence to achieve their potential. Mindful Leadership is a guide to leadership that starts with the self--for business people, members of the public service, professionals, and anyone else in a position to influence others.

Maria Gonzalez shows you how to use a single tool--Mindfulness meditation--to achieve clarity, focus, and self-awareness, enabling you to transform yourself and achieve positive results by inspiring those you lead. In this book, you will learn how to use mindfulness to:

• Achieve greater concentration and productivity

• Reduce the stresses in your life and manage those that remain

• Become resilient and sustain high performance over the long term

• Anticipate and serve stakeholder needs, commu-nicate better, and increase team effectiveness

• Stay focused on what matters and remain level-headed about what you can't control

• Create calm and focus, see clearly under stressful conditions, and make better decisions

Mindfulness is a process of training the mind that anyone can follow, and Mindful Leadership provides simple techniques you can use anytime, anywhere, to improve yourself as a leader. Beginning with the simple act of being fully present, mindfulness opens up the 9 ways to become more effective in every aspect of life.
