A visionary technologist and a consciousness expert team up to offer transformative methods for professional success in the big leagues."Stop doing what doesn't work " That's the first advice from recent Fortune 100 CTO Stephanie Mitchko and Founder of Mindfulness Intelligence Linda Bjork. Wherever you are on your personal or professional journey, letting go of old thinking is the first step to harnessing your full potential and making meaningful impact. "Mind Skills: Unleash Your Potential to Lead in the Big Leagues" invites you to break free from the old paradigm of business and embrace new leadership strategies. The unconventional partnership between Mitchko and Bjork offers a groundbreaking approach to transformative leadership development along with the practical skills for achieving success in the "big leagues." Whether you want to lead a Fortune 500 company, grow a start-up unicorn, or run for local office, these methods are invaluable.Ego-driven leadership, power dynamics, toxic office politics, and the ever-evolving demands of the digital age can make success feel unachievable. Now artificial intelligence has disrupted the business world in previously unimaginable ways. But a new kind of leadership is finally emerging, one that values empathy, inclusivity, and conscious awareness. As leaders and businesses transition, some questions will have to be answered: - How do we encourage collaboration when everyone is looking out for No. 1?- How can we be guided by kindness and meaning without becoming shark food? - How do we stay empowered and confident when the rules keep changing?- How do we get the best performance out of our teams when we can't control them?"Mind Skills" is a guidebook that empowers professionals to unleash their unique potential and become the leaders that today's big leagues demand.

Through self-awareness practices, confidence-building strategies, and techniques for embodying intentional leadership, you will be equipped with tools to thrive in the face of adversity. With a focus on conscious impact, readers will learn to navigate complexity with authenticity, compassion, and purpose.If you've ever wished to make the chaotic present more manageable, or yearned for more control over outcomes, or looked for ways to deal with impossible coworkers, or doubted your own ability to lead, or wondered if it's possible to become a whole, healed person while achieving the success you dream of, this book is for you."Mind Skills" is a must-read for anyone seeking to lead in the big leagues. Whether you're a seasoned executive or an emerging leader, "Mind Skills" will guide you on a transformative journey to becoming the leader you were destined to be.
