A Wandering Mind is a Busy Mind
A couple of weeks ago we blogged about taking contemplative time to find innovative solutions. Along the same theme, I wanted to visit another interesting behavior: the wandering mind. A friend shared a Wall Street Journal article that explores how a wandering mind can lead to creative insights. Today, more than ever, innovators are eager [...]

This is the NFL’s most important off-season event and followed closely by fans around the world. But, two scholars suggest the process is flawed because teams significantly [...]
Putting your feet up on the desk helps produce results … I love it!
Last year I asked our managers to schedule a 30 minute “contemplative meeting” every day on their calendars.
