Mindful Leadership

KEY POINTS

1. THINK OF OTHERS
Strong leaders are always conscious of how their decisions impact others. Consider how
you can better serve those who follow you and the way in which you can improve the
lives of everyone you deal with.
2. FOCUS ON EMPOWERMENT
Every person has a deep human need for self-respect, a sense of being important,
valued and worthwhile.  As a leader, you have the capacity and responsibility to
empower others. Find out what drives the people you lead and work to build their
confidence and skills in these areas.
3. KNOW YOUR VALUES
The ability to make decisions is one of the key attributes of great leaders.
Good decision-making is guided by a deep understanding of one’s core values and a
vision for the future. From this place, a leader is able to see how every small decision
may impact the bigger overall objectives.
4. BE SELF AWARE
Understanding your own strengths and weaknesses is key to being a great leader.
Through the practice of self-reflection and mindfulness, you can develop higher levels of
self-awareness and act with greater intention.
