Awareness Leadership Workshop
“MASTER YOUR MIND, MASTER YOUR SUCCESS”

The art of effective leadership with awareness, compassion and wisdom

Awareness leadership is the art of cultivating and leading with awareness, compassion and wisdom. Join Tibetan Buddhist meditation teacher Ven. Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, affective neuroscience pioneer Prof. Richard Davidson, psychologist and author of the international bestseller Emotional Intelligence Dr. Daniel Goleman (via live stream) and world-renowned martial artist Mr. Jet Li for a two-day workshop to explore the intersection of mind, science and leadership. At the workshop, we will present the benefits of training our powerful minds and explore how meditation practices naturally complement effective leadership in our working lives.

Ancient spiritual traditions and modern science both teach that our minds can be trained so that we become more aware of our circumstances, less reactive to stress, more compassionate, and better equipped to approach challenging issues in a calm and thoughtful manner. With training, we discover our innate ability to navigate life’s uncertainties with confidence, and learn to transform problems into opportunities for beneficial growth.

Over the two days, Mingyur Rinpoche will introduce the concept of “awareness” and how it is linked to effective leadership and wisdom management, and guide us through some simple meditation exercises to recognise awareness, a natural quality of our minds; Prof. Davidson will speak about the important scientific finding of neuroplasticity, that is, the brain’s immense potential to be “rewired”, and how and why meditation works to unleash that potential for our benefit; and Dr. Goleman will show how our emotional intelligence and awareness can work together to create a powerful leadership model.

In addition, three local speakers, each a leader in their field, will share how awareness and meditation practices have helped them to become an outstanding leader and meet life’s challenges. Mr. Andrew Fung, BBS, JP, Chief Financial Officer of Henderson Land Development Co Ltd, will talk about how awareness leadership complements corporate management; Dr. Rosalie Lo, a senior clinical psychologist at Hospital Authority, will speak about awareness, meditation and mindfulness training in the context of stress and trauma management; and Green Monday cofounder and Mind Reset Institute founder Mr. David Yeung will explore the link between awareness and creativity and innovative entrepreneurship.

This workshop is open to all who wish to explore their minds, and will be especially helpful for those in leadership positions.

This is a ticketed event presented by Tergar Asia Foundation, a registered charity. All proceeds, minus the costs of organisation, will go towards funding Tergar Asia’s vision of supporting communities across the region in learning to live with awareness, compassion and wisdom.

Leadership through the use of fear and domination is outdated! Recent advances in neuroscience have begun to unravel the mysteries of how meditation practices impact our behaviour and the functioning of the brain. Many experts and business leaders are beginning to recognise the vast potential of awareness, meditation and mindfulness training offers for developing powerful and effective leadership skills, managing stress and creating a more sustainable work environment.

The day will begin with an experiential sharing by Mingyur Rinpoche, which will include guided meditation practices that foster awareness, compassion and wisdom. This will be followed by a session with Dr. Daniel Goleman, who will share his finding of how emotional intelligence, EQ, can effectively combine with awareness to form a powerful leadership model.

After lunch, there will be an interactive dialogue between the local speakers, facilitators and participants, focusing on the ways our powerful minds can adapt and change, and on how awareness, meditation and mindfulness training can make us more effective leaders.

Good leadership is not just a personal attribute; it also encompasses a willingness and ability to connect with others. Some well-recognised qualities of a leader include empathy, the ease and ability to be with other people, respect and care for others, and a willingness and capability to see things from the perspectives of one’s working partners. These qualities are inseparable from a wish to connect with and care for the well-being of other people. A leader is not only able to develop
insights into the self, but must also have the breadth and depth of vision to gain insights into others and the wider world.

From the perspective of affective neuroscience, Prof. Davidson will speak about how leadership can be imbued with awareness and care for the well-being of others. He will also present the latest research on developing such leadership qualities, and discuss why leaders who develop an affinity with others tend to be more insightful and better at problem-solving.

An interactive session follows in which participants will explore the nexus of science, meditation and compassionate and awareness-inspired leadership. Mingyur Rinpoche will lead us to contemplate the importance of cultivating awareness and genuine care for the well-being of others, and guide us through meditation practices that will help nurture these qualities.
