Mindful Stress Solutions for Today's Leaders J. Erik Engberg

The world has become an exponentially more complex place to live and work and Mindful Stress Solutions for Today's Leaders helps those in positions of responsibility learn how to respond to inevitable stressors in a way that improves their credibility and the effectiveness of their team. While most self-help books ask the reader to carve extra time out of an already busy schedule for a variety of relaxation techniques, Mindful Stress Solutions for Today's Leaders assists the reader through easy to understand exercises, how to physiologically rewire the mind as part of daily living and take responsibility for managing stress rather than blaming others for it. Mindful Stress Solutions for Today's Leaders recognizes the unique stressors of people managers and explores solutions that anyone can utilize both in and out of the work setting to help respond in a healthy way. Addtionally, Engberg explores the connection between mindful stress solutions and Daniel Goleman's components of emotional intellegence. Most importantly, the book provides specific strategies that any leader can practice to both manage stress and set the kind of example that will effectively lead teams to improved results.
