MindfulYou® in Leadership
Create a Mindful Business
“Recharge your business’ batteries and restore its productivity.”
This Mindfulness training program takes place in the Workplace. Mindfulness is a group of techniques that can help someone pay attention "on purpose". It involves a conscious direction of awareness. It is a tool for organisational change, either on individual, or team and organisational level. It is a method that empowers individuals, makes happier employees that are more engaged, better capable on making decisions and going the extra mile that little bit more cheerfully.
Do You want to become a Conscious Leader with strong Leadership presence?
Do You want to enhance Intuition, increase brain-wave activity and focus?
Do you want to better concentrate and manage stress?
Top business leaders and companies like Apple, Intel, P&G, Google, Nike and others, create mindful corporate programs to help their employees calm their mind and increase focus. Such skills are crucial for those hoping to succeed on an increasingly frenetic environment, which is always accompanied by a range of burdens; from the distraction of an always-ringing phone to pressure for strong quarterly benefits.

Stress Profile© in Business
Psychological & Physiological screening tools for everyone
Specialized personality tests in the workplace
"No stress balls required."
Stress Profile© is a tool that monitors and counts each person's behaviour characteristics and habits, when combating stress comes into play. Using psychometric tools, we examine each participant's personality to find out his or hers personal limits against stress.
Utilizing special software and through the use of sensors and external devices, we take measurements in order to monitor the changes someone's body experiences when under stress (i.e. muscle spasm, sweat, heartbeat, breathing), while at the same time monitoring brain waves and specific activity on both hemispheres. The train of thought is also monitored, as well as behavioural patterns.
The procedure takes around 20 minutes, and the participants are tought how to:
Auto-adjust stress levels, through simple methods
Make themselves feel calmer by utilizing classic relaxation techniques
Take notice and recognize increased signs of stress
It's a small-duration, fast and friendly procedure, where participants get to experience and see in live time the changes that happen in their bodies when they get stressed. It's essentially a fully structured profile for anyone who is interested in discovering specific personality traits that expand both in the workplace and in their daily life.
What the Press has to say about Stress Profile
Stress Profile has multiple uses. It can be an employee valuation tool, a program to combat stress, or even as a guide to health prevention in the workforce.
