Improve Leadership
Increased Resilience
Reduced Stress
Born at Google, Search Inside Yourself takes an evidence-based approach combining neuroscience, attention-training and emotional intelligence. The program provides practical tools that can be applied immediately in life or at work. We start with a foundation of mindfulness, and build the core emotional intelligence domains that lead to outstanding leadership.

Mindful Leadership Training
A HIGHLY INTERACTIVE 2-DAY PROGRAM FOLLOWED BY A FOUR-WEEK ONLINE JOURNEY

Program design
SIY program is built around four key disciplines

Emotional Intelligence
Emotional intelligence is the ability to recognize your own and other people’s emotions and use this information to guide wise thinking and behavior. Emotions are part of everyone’s work life and are essential for decision-making and for connection.

mindfulness
Mindfulness is the ability to focus on the present moment with curiosity and openness.
It’s a foundational skill that underpins emotional intelligence. Mindfulness practices train the ability to become aware of the present moment, building attention, focus and concentration.

Neuroscience
“What we have found is that the long time (mindfulness) practitioners showed brain activation on a scale we have never seen before. Their mental practice is having an effect on the brain in the same way golf or tennis practice will enhance performance.” – Richard Davidson, Leading Scientist in Neuroscience

leadership
Neuroscience and behavioral research studies continue to present evidence that both mindfulness and emotional intelligence provide the skills and capacities needed to improve resilience, collaboration, individual and team performance, sustainable well-being and effective leadership.
