"Mindfulness för ledare" är en handbok för ledare på alla nivåer och i alla typer av verksamheter. Maria Gonzalez visar hur mindfulness i nio tydliga steg bidrar till självkännedom, klarsynthet och fokus – ett autentiskt ledarskap som inspirerar och leder till positiva resultat.

Ett centralt budskap i boken är att ledarskapet alltid startar med dig själv. Effektiva ledare har hög självmedvetenhet och vet hur man stimulerar andra att prestera väl. Mindfulness kan därigenom bli varje ledares mest effektiva redskap för att utveckla och transformera sig själv och sitt ledarskap.

Mindfulness är ett sätt att lära känna och få kontroll över sig själv. Maria Gonzalez visar hur du med enkla mindfulnessövningar och en större närvaro kan stärka och utveckla ditt ledarskap. "Mindfulness för ledare - nio steg till autentiskt ledarskap" kan hjälpa var och en som vill finna ett bättre sätt att leda - och få en större tillfredsställelse i såväl sitt personliga som yrkesmässiga liv.
