Practicing Mindful Leadership: Cultivating Connection and Engagement

Dr. Abbey Davis — Director for the Center for the Future of Work, Spears School of Business, and Assistant Professor of Practice, Oklahoma State University

Cultivating connection and engagement may seem more difficult than ever before. With remote work setups, constant distractions, and increased focus on maximizing productivity, finding a few minutes in the day to check-in and connect with your team may seem like an impossible feat. This doesn’t even include having the time or energy to check in on yourself. During this workshop, you will walk through practices and exercises to help you reconnect with yourself, so you can, in turn, cultivate connection and engagement with others. We will spend a considerable amount of time discussing how to stay present and curious with others and will use the Korn Ferry Emotional and Social Competency Inventory to understand how we can further develop our emotional intelligence. We will learn practical ways to become better conversationalists and connect with others on a much deeper level. You will learn the basics of mindfulness and determine a customized practice of mindful leadership. We will also introduce you to numerous resources and tools to engage and practice with after this workshop. You will leave this workshop feeling confident in how you manage everyday stress and distractions and, hopefully, reconnect with yourself and your team.

Workshop length can be three to four hours or an all-day retreat.
