Culture and Leadership Development, Brand Integration and
Alignment in association with the Zone awakening heart, spirit,
and purpose in organisations now inviting your inquiry
Mindful Adventures joins forces with the team at the Zone to work with organisations who see that social and economic goals are not mutually exclusive and recognise the power of internal and external alignment of culture, of people, of leadership and of brand. We work with an organisation building its own capacity to lead their cultural change and to meet their bigger organisational purpose…then we quickly (and gently) get out of their way. If you are the leader or team member of a medium to large organisation and you have a sense that something is blocking the organisation’s way ahead or things just do not seem to line up ...and you are committed to change…then please give me a call (021 313323) or email lisam@whatisthezone.com, with cc to andrewb@whatisthezone.com ).

- Break-through problem solving: being creative around what is possible and how to get there.
- Having the “hard-to-have” conversations with your team: often involves some profiling as background and to enhance understanding between team members.
- Strategic mindsets for the future: creatively engaging others in designing a future.
- Emotional Fitness and Wellbeing for leaders: about being resilient, having bounce back, and most importantly achieving flow.
We also facilitate community dialogue where the objective is innovation and strategy for the common good. Please speak to Lisa about this if this is something your community or group would benefit from.
