Mindfulness is Not a Hazard Control, But wait! - with Corilee Fox

Mindfulness practice and leader coaching have had a significant boost in popularity and use over the last few years. If you have been working in or studying workplace psychological health and safety you may have even experienced your own workplace adding initiatives that are focused on self-care and resilience. They are sometimes offered in efforts to improve work-related stress. These initiatives are unlikely to affect the workplace conditions of psychological health and safety directly. They are not hazard controls to mitigate harm presented by a psych health and safety risk factor. But don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. In this episode, host Kim MacDonald speaks with practitioner and entrepreneur coach, Corilee Fox, about its role in strengthening emotional literacy, personal stress management and understanding yourself as a workplace leader. Corilee shares the mindfulness principles and how leaders can observe their behaviours to support positive shifts in workplace culture.
