    About this audiobook

    The one habit that can improve almost every leadership skill
    There is a simple practice that can improve nearly every component of leadership excellence and it doesn't require adding anything to your busy schedule. In The Mindfulness Edge, you'll discover how a subtle inner shift, called mindfulness, can transform things that you already do every day into opportunities to become a better leader. Author Matt Tenney has trained leaders around the world in the practice of mindfulness. In this audiobook, he partners with neuroscientist Tim Gard, PhD, to offer step-by-step, practical guidance for quickly and seamlessly integrating mindfulness training into your daily life-rewiring your brain in ways that improve both the ‘hard' and ‘soft' skills of leadership.

    In this audiobook, you'll learn how mindfulness training helps you:

    Quickly improve business acumen and your impact on the bottom line
    Become more innovative and attract/retain innovative team members
    Develop the emotional intelligence essential for creating and sustaining a winning culture
    Realize the extraordinary leadership presence that inspires greatness in others
    The authors make a compelling case for why mindfulness training may be the 'ultimate success habit.' In addition to helping you improve the most essential elements of highly effective leadership, mindfulness training can help you discover unconditional happiness and realize incredible meaning-professionally and personally.

      Tenney and Gard have provided a practical guide for mindfulness self-training. They show how to develop greater self-awareness without having to carve out time from a busy schedule to add mindfulness exercises. The authors explain how mindfulness can be developed as you go about your normal day. Interspersed throughout the book and separated from the main text are notes explaining the neuroscience of mindfulness training. Clear instructions are given for mindfulness practices for beginners to advanced-level practitioners. The authors explain how mindfulness improves leadership and personal excellence. This is the book for those wanting to understand the importance of mindfulness to personal and professional effectiveness and how to cultivate increased awareness of self, others, and one’s surroundings without complicated exercises. The authors admit that their approach is simple but not necessarily easy. But for those who truly want to increase mindfulness, "The Mindfulness Edge" provides a realistic process for achieving that goal.
