Mindshifting is about learning to lead mindfully and with impact. Focusing helps us learn more rapidly and perform more effectively given the flood of information coming at us and the increasing pace of change around us. We can take back control using these essential mindful leadership skills.
This approach is based on the latest behavioral, psychological and neuroscience research. I use case examples and inspiring stories from successful leaders in a range of Fortune 500 companies. By clarifying our thinking and values we can transform our organizations and create extraordinary outcomes.
In the end you will have a pragmatic action plan to guide your development and realize your potential.

We can build true self-confidence from the inside out by cultivating self-acceptance. We undermine our sense of self-worth by trying to measure ourselves by external benchmarks and trying to cultivate self-esteem: how much money do we make, what is our position in the hierarchy, are we getting a lot of recognition and approval, and do we have more or less than those around us? This outcome orientation makes us worried about evaluation and potential failure, and so we are vulnerable to worry and psyching ourselves out, both in sports and in work. We can complement this by a process orientation, which is about how we are learning, getting better at our work and enjoying our activities. This approach helps us feel good about ourselves and the journey, and is the key to cultivating self-acceptance. We can’t control outcomes, but we can control how we focus on feelings, experience and process.
Self-esteem is vulnerable to outcomes we don’t control in four areas:
Self-acceptance is solid and sustainable, and is based on four factors:
Experiment: We can replace Worrying with Planning, and free ourselves from unproductive and draining anxiety.
Experiment: Getting into Flow—we can learn to ‘get in the zone’ and temporarily drop our focus on outcomes.
Experiment: Befriending ourselves is the practice of supporting, trusting, taking care of and loving ourselves.
