Dear TIM Colleagues,
You are warmly invited to attend a unique Professional Development Workshop (PDW) at the 2025 AOM Annual Meeting in Copenhagen, designed to explore the intersection of inner awareness and innovative leadership:
π§ββοΈ Understanding Vipassana Meditation for Leadership: Insights into Managing Biases and Emotions
π
Saturday, July 26, 2025
π 15:30β17:00 CEST (GMT+2)
π Bella Center, Room MR7
π Session Link
This MSR-sponsored PDW introduces the foundational principles of Vipassana meditation-SΔ«la (ethical conduct), SamΔdhi (concentration), and PaΓ±Γ±Δ (wisdom)-and explores their application in leadership, decision-making, and cognitive bias regulation.
In fast-paced, high-stakes innovation environments, the ability to remain clear-minded, emotionally balanced, and ethically grounded is critical. This session offers practical tools to navigate uncertainty, manage internal biases, and foster mindful leadership-skills that support both breakthrough innovation and sustainable organizational culture.
Whether you're a meditation practitioner or simply curious how mindfulness can enhance your approach to research, teaching, or innovation leadership, we'd love to welcome you to this session.
With warm regards,
Nelson Pizarro
University of the Virgin Islands
Participant, MSR Division PDW
