12 Poll At work, we have... Results An ongoing mindfulness/meditation program 9% Had a speaker or session 19% No mindfulness/meditation activity 65% Not applicable (I don t work with others) 7%

13 Personal Benefits Substantial stress reduction Decreased or elimination of anxiety, depression, anger Improved focus, attention, decision-making, creativity Clearer thinking Decreased perception of pain Lowered Blood pressure Improved immune function Happier! Sources: Harvard Medical School, and University of Massachusetts Medical School

14 Proven benefits of mindfulness at work Mindful employees are less frustrated, even in unsupportive managerial environments. Mindfulness acts as a protective factor in controlling work environments. Study: Mindfulness, Work Climate & Psychological Need Satisfaction in Employee Well-being. Patricia P. Schultz, Psychology Dept, Univ of Rochester The Change Management Opportunity: Offer mindfulness, with change management techniques added. Helps employees feel less victimized and more in control of their experience.

16 Action: 12 week mindfulness & yoga program. Search Inside Yourself program teaches selfmastery & creating useful mental habits. 5 month waitlist to attend. Result: Employees more productive & less stressed. $3,000 saved/employee/year in healthcare costs. 11 to 1 return on investment. Immediately life-changing personally and at work. But needed to sustain the benefits, so now training facilitators to hold daily sessions. (Using The Calm Monkey s online training).

17 Action: 30 day mindfulness pilot. Weekly mindfulness sessions & regular resiliency seminars for stressed shift-workers. Result: 98% Helped manage stress. 92% Improved ability to focus at work. 86% Improved time-management skills. Significant decreases in depression, anxiety & stress. 14.7% decrease in long-term disability claims. 31% decrease in average days lost.

18 My interview by SAP s Digitalist Magazine Change Management is Dead Honest, We tried!

19 CM isn t dead, but our traditional approach isn t enough... We need to focus MORE on individuals. Real change happens one individual at a time so tap into each person s personal reality. Mindfulness Meditation + CM = Resiliency

20 Why add change management to meditation? To help employees go deeper into self-awareness, and be more conscious about their actions and behaviors. MOVE THEM FROM: Stress Response TO: Relaxation Response This is when RESILIENCY and LEARNING can happen.

21 Results of CM + Meditation

22 Meditation Study: How does the Dealing with Change meditation impact your experience of a challenging change? Participants were asked to: Think of a work-related change that they find quite undesirable. Listen to the Dealing with Change 15 minute meditation recording at least 3 times in a 2 week period. Dealing with Change meditation guides through a self-reflection of reactions, emotions and behavior. Then guides through setting intention for a preferred experience. 22
