Event Overview

Amid the chaos of over-programmed, over-stressed life in the digital age we are increasingly hearing calls for finding ways to have more reflection, more joy, more happiness in our lives, for reconnecting to our feelings, and for experiencing life with people around us more meaningfully. Nowhere do we need such emphasis more than the workplace itself, where, thrown together with others under the pressure-cookers of productivity, personalities, and politics, we’re all very often simply just unhappy on many levels.

Yet we don’t need to be unhappy--and unhappiness, not surprisingly, is not productive. So it’s in our personal and professional interests to do something about it!

This workshop will help you do just that. It will introduce you to the research showing the importance of mindfulness to a happy and productive workplace. It will also lead you to experience a variety of activities grouped under the heading of “mindfulness” designed to help you be more thoughtful about, and aware of, your own thoughts, feelings, and emotions--and to be a better steward of the thoughts, feelings, and emotions of others. We’ll be drawing on the best-selling work, Search Inside Yourself, by Chade-Meng Tan, legendary Google engineer, which has recently introduced the centuries-old practice of mindfulness to many in the fast paced workplace of today.

So join the Deans of the NERCOMP Learning Organization Academy as we talk about mindfulness, experience a variety of meditative, reflective, and mindful activities, and think about how we might put these to use in the workplace.
