"Welcome to The Process, a therapy retreat on the North Devon Coast.
Five delegates have assembled to face up to their issues. David, a hotshot lawyer, must overcome the perpetual sense that he is an outsider. Sujitha, a veteran German traveler, is an outsider too – in her home country. Sheila, a middle-aged executive, keeps on falling for charming but narcissistic men. Nathan appears to be totally 'together' – what is his problem? Lola needs to balance her desire for independence with her traditional British Asian family. Louise, the therapist, who has risen from poor roots in Brooklyn, seems totally in control – but does she have her own unresolved issues too?
And alongside them is Jacob, the mysterious creator of The Process, whose dark past has up until now, been largely undetected. But technological changes are fast catching up with the other side to his 'creativity'. What will happen if his two worlds collide?"
"Mindful Business Leadership presents a new model of leadership. It introduces ten very different leadership roles that are required to meet the challenges of modern business. Memorable metaphors and images are created for each, and they are placed in a matrix. Listeners are shown how to develop these roles within themselves. Potentially negative aspects of each are discussed, along with material on how to put these to creative use. The book argues that mindfulness is the best way to balance the roles—a mindful leader will know 'who to be' in any situation. The last part is taken up with clear, practical exercises that listeners can practice to become more fully mindful and develop a clear vision for their own leadership.
Mindful Business Leadership is relevant to anyone, anywhere in the world, who is moving (or wishes to move) to a position of leadership.
