In this TEDx presentation, Yves Givel suggests a way forward for organisations to face uncertain and complex worlds, making the argument for a shift towards learning organisations through mindfulness practices. Learning organisations are characterized by strong leadership, flat organisational structures and by a drive to bring more flexible and innovative work practices in the workplace. However, in order to make these organisations thrive, leaders have to adapt, changing their mindsets more than their skillsets: but how can they create an environment where colleagues can try out new things, speak up and challenge the status quo? Leaders’ mindsets have to include: empathy, being able to listen to others and feel with them; supporting a culture of experimentation; welcoming safe failure, prototyping and developing processes of early failure. In order to foster these mindsets, Yves Givel suggests simple mindfulness practices for leaders to implement in their life and in their workspace.
