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.

Goals are helpful in focusing attention. However, when we get too attached to goals our focus narrows and we lose track of our process. Goals are a reference point, but not helpful as an ongoing focus. Checking the score too much while playing the game is a surefire way to psych yourself out. A good development plan keeps you focused on how you are going to reach your goals and what skills you want to learn on the way. I provide a sample plan and show you how to articulate SMART goals, actions and metrics.
Development plans are different from performance goals. Development plans are about the ‘how’. Performance goals are the ‘what’. Unfortunately, most organizations focus employees on performance goals that are set top down, rather than inquiring into employee aspirations and setting bottom up development goals.
Don’t worry about creating the perfect plan. Just take one step and commit to one action at a time. You can evolve and elaborate your plan over time. Development plans are best thought of as living documents rather than one and done activities.
