As we learn in this week’s episode of the 6 Degrees Podcast with Stephen Gold, the President and CEO of Manufacturers Alliance, mindfulness, like life itself, is a journey, not a destination. There are no winners or losers. There are many elements of mindfulness that association professionals will find helpful, and we are honored to have longtime association community thought leader Stephen Gold join our show this week to provide a crash course on how incorporating better mindfulness principles into our lives can benefit ourselves and those around us.Here are some resources to keep in mind if you’d like to learn more:Books on or Related to Mindfulness1.
