About the Event
The class will focus on a Buddhist approach to work and how to apply it. Basic to
this approach is the insight that our true strength does not come from our power
over others, but rather from our power over our own minds. Research has shown the
efficacy of calmness, compassion and inclusion in the workplace. However, our
training and habituated mind is more adept at creating a stress response, expressing
or suppressing anger and engaging in real or perceived competitive power struggles.
By sharpening our awareness of what is really going on, strengthening our mind's
ability to supervise our own hindrances, and increasing our capacity to authentically
support others, we change the dynamics of a relationship, team or organization
enough so that we can work less, get more done, and feel more fulfilled.
