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 increase our self-control and ability to focus. In addition, we can improve our ‘executive functions’. These enable us to organize ourselves and manage the demands of our lives. Multitasking is seductive but makes us error prone and makes it harder to focus in the future. It is essentially neurotoxic as it thins our prefrontal cortex. We need to intentionally set boundaries on technology, for example, how often we check our email. And we need to decide whether we need to respond instantaneously. If we are clear on our limitations we can use technology to help us focus rather than be its slave.
