Search Inside Yourself (SIY)
Mindful Leadership Training
Search Inside Yourself Leadership Training
Transform your Impact from the Inside Out.
Resilience. Collaboration. Wellbeing.
Search Inside Yourself takes an evidence-based approach combining neuroscience, Mindful 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:
-
Neuroscience research indicates that how we direct our attention determines the mental habits we form, the emotions we develop, and the results we experience.
-
Mindfulness enables us to focus on the present moment with curiosity and openness. It’s a foundational skill that underpins emotional intelligence.
-
Emotional Intelligence empowers us to recognize our own and other people’s emotions and use this information to guide wise thinking and behavior.
Neuroscience + Mindfulness + Emotional Intelligence =
Thriving Leaders
Who will Benefit
The core Search Inside Yourself program can be adapted to meet the needs of any organization seeking to manage workplace stress, build resilience in challenging times, and unleash creativity and innovation among employees at all levels:

ORIGINS OF SEARCH INSIDE YOURSELF
Search Inside Yourself was born at Google from a dream to change the world.
