Buddhist Leadership at Work
Dear friends on the Path,
we are happy to continue our online sharings on different aspects of mindfulness and the dharma at work and in other economic activities.
This impulse is connected with the international retreat of our network which contemplated the question: How does a Buddha lead? So for those who attended we continue and deepen the insights we gained and those who couldn't attend will be given the opportunity to connect to our collective insight and contribute personal experience.
Questions we may ask us:
- What can we learn from the historic Buddha and his ancestors about wholesome leadership?
- How does mindfulness change our way of leading? In which ways can the Buddhist teachings inspire our way of engaging in the world?
- Which other mindskills do we need to develop, and how can we train them?
- What is our motivation to lead or not to lead?
We’d like to contemplate such questions together on November 19 — exploring the experience we have had with Buddhist inspired leadership and followership in our business and economic lives. In this 75-minute session, we will meditate together, hear a short impulse talk, allow for self-reflection and exchange in break-out groups.

ABOUT THE FORMAT
Online impulses from the Network for Mindful Business are a 75-minute format to meditate together, share shortly on the topic, allow for self-reflection and exchange in break-out groups. They generally take place from 17:15 - 18:30 CET (Central European Time a.k.a. Paris, Berlin, Rome), which makes for a nice close to the workday in Europe, a morning practice in the Americas and an evening close in Asia.
They grew out of local in-person events focused around various topics or koans and coalesced into an online format in 2020 as we moved toward more international activities.
The impulses are hosted alternatively by different core members of the Network for Mindful Business.
