Management Team Grounding

Managers carry a great deal of responsibility for their people and their unit's work. This often results in stress which adversely affects views and decisions on people and business.  These sessions are designed for managers to de-stress, centre themselves, see the best in their teams and allow their teams to do their best.

The management team are asked to leave a clear slot in their schedules so they are not likely to be distracted by immediate pressures or interruptions.  Managers are asked to arrive in time to start promptly and to stay until the end.  It would be wise to avoid a stressful period immediately after the session - take a lunch break for example.

Your Benefits

Managers should feel more grounded in themselves and be able to view their staff in more realistic terms. This will enable them to see the best in their staff and be more sympathetic to their needs and achievements. Their team should sense this more human approach and be more willing to share their concerns or suggestions with a sympathetic manager and to achieve their best. Managers should also feel less need to always be there - allowing them to restore a healthy balance between home and work life. Families do need their parents to be there regularly both in body and spirit!

Who is this for?

Members of Management Teams with responsibilities for employees and the work done.

What happens?

Your Yoga In Business Instructor will guide you through a number of gentle physical exercises and include some work with the breath.  There will be periods of silence, usually with the eyes closed, during which verbal guided visualisations will be given. There will be some group work on the topic of management problems, responsibilities and solutions.  All work will be done seated or standing.

Accommodation

The Management Team Grounding session can readily be performed in most meeting rooms if they are screened from view, or if preferred to get away from it all - at a local hotel or similar. The  Management Team Grounding session could also be incorporated into an existing Management Team Away Event.

How Long Does it Last?

Typically one and a half hours, and repeated typically every other month to get ongoing benefit and development.

What About Food?

Drinks and snacks are provided if the session is held away from your office.  It is best to avoid alcohol and preferably tea or coffee on the day - but don't come in trembling from withdrawal symptoms!. It is also best to avoid a heavy meal for 2 hours beforehand. Otherwise there is no need to restrict what you eat or drink beforehand.

What Clothing is Needed?

Your usual business attire is fine.  For ladies, it is best to avoid a tight or short skirt. You may be asked to remove your shoes and your jacket during the session.

How Much does it Cost?

£300 for a one and a half hour session.  10% discount if 6 or more sessions booked and paid in one invoice submitted after the first session. See the index page for any extra charges for travelling & living expenses (if appropriate), and accommodation & refreshments (if needed).
