In a complex, fast-moving environment it becomes more and more important to consciously navigate yourself and your teams. Mindfulness builds the core emotional intelligence skills needed to increase well-being and become an effective self-leader as well as a leader of others.
What is mindfulness?
Our attention is often hijacked by our thoughts and emotions, by our concerns, by our worries for the future, and by our regrets and memories of the past.
Mindfulness is awareness of the present moment. It is about learning to pay attention, in the present moment, and without judgment.
It can be trained like a muscle - training attention to be where you want it to be.
Mindfulness reduces your tendency to react on autopilot; it is about allowing you to choose how you respond.

For some other benefits (such as tax-free saving for childcare) the tax is added back on to your contribution when the benefit is provided.
