General Session
With great power comes great responsibility! As we advance into new leadership positions, the impact of our actions are magnified and the demands on our time and energy grow. Through mindful leadership, we can practice ways to find that quiet place to examine the strategic, cultural, and emotional factors that are influencing our choices. This awareness allows us to make thoughtful and courageous decisions for the health of ourselves, our teams, and our institutions. In this session, we will explore a variety of mindful leadership, nutritional, and physical practices that can help us express more focus, creativity, and joy in the workplace. We will discuss ways to sustain healthy focus at work while retaining energy for the things we love outside of it.
