Mindfulness - in conversation with Deborah Rowland

This podcast is part of the Contemporary leadership series

Mindfulness seems to be everywhere, whether you talk about mindful coaching, mindful consulting or mindful leadership. But what does it mean?

For Deborah Rowland, co-author of Sustaining Change: Leadership That Works, mindfulness is, in a nutshell, the “awareness that arises from paying attention, in the present moment, intentionally and non-judgmentally.”

In this podcast, Deborah Roland reveals the findings of an empirical study that looked at the role of mindfulness in leading change; she also talks about how to balance mindfulness with the practice of ‘edge and tension’.
