As leaders we are increasingly facing a dilemma that pulls us in opposing directions. The pace of work is increasing and we are often called upon to achieve greater results with fewer resources.

Feel like the world is passing you by as you rush through another workday? Like you never have enough energy to manage the team you're supposed to be leading? Like you can't even accomplish yourself what you set out to achieve? What you need is focus. Focus is at the core of effective leadership, but cultivating it has become daunting in our age of globalization, fast technological change, and environmental challenges.

This book is full of insights and exercises that teach leaders and leaders-to-be how to practice mindfulness. It shows how mindfulness allows you to become more mentally and physically resilient, more easily able to switch between action and reflection, and better equipped at knowing when to focus on yourself or the world around you. But mindfulness-based leadership doesn't stop there. By learning to focus, you learn to work with your team more effectively. Nurturing a mindful corporate culture helps you solve problems and build healthy strategies that will benefit you, your colleagues, and your organization.
