B4 One: The Sceptic’s Guide to Creating a Mindful Workplace with Kate Reid of B3 Potential
Mindfulness is often touted as a panacea to Mental health issues in the workplace, but is it really the most appropriate method of boosting mental fitness?
Kate dissects the facts and the “spin” about mindfulness in the workplace, discusses where and how it’s being used and explores the questions being raised in the corporate world about its value.
Even if you hate the word “Mindfulness” ( and many do), you’ll still learn some tools and techniques you can introduce to your workplace without ever having to say OMMM.
Kate is a Leadership Development Specialist, Executive and Team Coach, and part of an advisory group to the Mindful Workplace Community.
