CII2006. Self-Care and Mindfulness: Core Leadership Competencies

Stress is not new to the CPA profession. However, COVID and other environmental factors have furthered the impact that stress is having on our lives. This course will look at the impact of stress and ways CPAs can leverage best practices in meditation and self-care to reduce stress and reach optimum levels of personal health. Attendees will leave with an action plan to implement self-care in their day to day activities. Like they say on airplanes, it is important to first put our own oxygen mask on before helping others. We'll learn to apply these techniques to create a healthy culture with leaders who truly lead by example and encourage others to take care of themselves so they can be their best selves in the office.

Learning Objectives:

• Recognize the physical and mental impact of stress
• Describe how meditation and self care can be used as tools to improve wellbeing
• Create a personal action plan to implement self care
