Marc Lesser on Mastering Mindful Leadership in Today's World
“I think the pandemic has brought me and all of us closer to that question that you're asking, because we're seeing that life, you know things, things are happening that we never really thought would ever happen, and that there's a sense, that sense of uncertainty.”
Feeling overwhelmed by the chaos of modern life? You're not alone. In this episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', Valeria Teles sits down with Marc Lesser, the author of 'Seven Practices of a Mindful Leader: Lessons from Google and a Zen Monastery Kitchen'. Marc brings a refreshing perspective on how ancient mindfulness practices can be applied to contemporary leadership challenges.
He shares practical wisdom on how to embrace failure, connect with our own pain and the pain of others, and cultivate an inclusive, compassionate mindset. From the origins of mindful leadership dating back to 13th-century Japan to the transformative power of long retreats, Marc's insights are both timeless and deeply relevant. Whether you're leading a team or simply navigating your own life, this conversation offers valuable tools to help you stay grounded and open-hearted.
