    DESCRIPTION:

    Do you find yourself in the middle of the night thinking about work and unable to sleep? Do you arrive at work and wonder how you even got there, never noticing anything along the way?  Do you remember where you left your keys or if you responded to that email?  Paying Attention has become a skill which can be relearned.  We'll review how to easily and quickly develop a Mindfulness practice to help enable you to increase your productivity and allow you to sleep at night.

    PROGRAM OBJECTIVES:

    Attendance at this session will allow HR professionals through direct experience to:

    1.  Learn and implement tools that will enable them to join the conversation and address current organizational strategies such as the focus on employee retention and recruitment. 

    2. Be able to define how the practice of Mindfulness, and nonjudgmental awareness, supports positive people management practices, and

    3. Explain how being able to increase self-awareness and move away from auto pilot, and to shift from a mindset of responding vs reacting, supports an environment where change management skills are routinely needed to help deal with situations that are uncertain, unclear, or chaotic.

    OUR SPEAKER:

    Harriet Stein has more than thirty years’ experience in the healthcare industry, including almost a decade teaching Mindfulness at Johnson & Johnson. She is a Registered Nurse and professional presenter to companies ranging in size from small firms through the Fortune 500. She is called an “inspirational teacher,” and utilizes humor to teach the practice of Mindfulness.

    Harriet’s passion is helping individuals take steps toward a healthier, more fulfilling life through this practice which will enhance both their professional and personal lives.  She taught Mindfulness at J&J to over 5,000 of her colleagues, gave mindfulness presentations at internal leadership summits for global audiences, and instructed on Mindful Leadership.  She launched her own company eight years ago and left J&J in 2017 to focus entirely on bringing Mindfulness into the workplace.  

    Harriet Stein’s desire to teach Mindfulness began after attending her first professional program with Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, founder of the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Program in 2000.  She completed advanced teacher training in MBSR at The Myrna Brind Center for Mindfulness at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia.  

    Harriet earned a BS in Nursing from Albright College and a MS in Health Administration from Saint Joseph’s University.

    IN THE SPIRIT OF THE SEASON:

    We hope that you will join is by supporting these two charities at our December event:

    Children’s Futures in Trenton https://childrensfutures.org/

    Created in 2001 by The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Children’s Futures works across Central Jersey to ensure that all children and families get off to a healthy start in life. At our core, we aim to increase opportunities for health and wellness and to ward off health and social problems that can lead to a lifetime of illness and dependency. Because no single agency can claim the necessary expertise, authority and resources to accomplish these goals alone, Children’s Futures collaborates with public and private agencies across multiple sectors, including education, health and social welfare.
