Dr. Daniel Siegel at the recent Neuroleadership conference introduced the concept of a "healthy platter" for leaders. How cool is this...consider these elements in every week. As a leader it is easy to forget the balance of activity and focus on the 24/7 urgent. Consider seven components of time in your week: focus time, physical time, connecting time, play time, downtime (re-charging), time-in (reflecting) and oh yes, sleep time. How better to integrate and ensure energy and flow of ideas. A healthy mind comes from integration, harmony and creating capacity for adaptive behaviors....critically important in chaotic and changing times.
