Statement Of Purpose
"Successful organisations operate with care, integrity and sustainability and have proud, engaged employees. Simply put, they are healthy – they have both a healthy bottom line and a healthy culture.
Research shows that the single greatest factor that determines the health of organisations is great leadership. Healthy, effective leaders create productive, profitable organisations. As Thich Nhat Hahn, a famous Zen teacher, said, “When we are well, our wellness spills onto others”.
Michael’s purpose is to create wellness and engagement in organisations. He understands that good leaders are critical in every field: leaders who have cultivated integrity, vision, discipline, and sincere care for the people they lead. This is why he focuses on world-class, values-based leadership, and why ‘mindful leadership’ is central to his approach.
Mindfulness is the art and science of engagement, awareness and response-ability. Michael has dedicated the past 23 years of his life to disciplined mindfulness practice and teaching."
