Mindful Leadership with Dr. Richard Davidson, Bill George, and Roshi Joan Halifax
Madison, Wisconsin, USA
Mindful Leadership is the art of leading with awareness, insight, and compassion. Join neuroscientist Dr. Richard Davidson, Harvard leadership expert Bill George, and Roshi Joan Halifax, Buddhist teacher and Zen priest, as they explore how mindfulness practices naturally complement effective leadership.
Mindfulness training enables people to be more aware of their circumstances, less reactive to stress, more compassionate, and better equipped to approach challenging issues in a calm, thoughtful manner. This program investigates how science and mindfulness meditation can help us develop personal and professional leadership skills for the 21st century.
University of Wisconsin-Extension Continuing Education Units will be available for this program.
