MEDITATION COURSES

IN THE WORKPLACE

Kevin Hume has worked extensively in government and the corporate sector. In his communications consultancy he specialized in strategic advice to Cabinet Ministers, heads of government departments and agencies and their private sector equivalents. As a workplace consultant he can now create from both sound practical experience and thorough theoretical knowledge a course tailor-made to the needs of you and your organization.

And while everyone can benefit from his workplace courses, Kevin Hume has focused on strategic work-performance programs designed to assist the particular needs of CEOs, directors, senior managers and supervisors and those in frontline high pressure and high-customer or client-contact positions required to meet sustained high performance expectations.

Here is some of the feedback from recent workplace courses:

‘Just a short note to thank you for the workshop you conducted with the CEO Institute… and the presentation itself, which was extremely well received by our members. The average rating given by members was 9 out of 10. With your permission we will contact you again in the future (for more presentations to our members)’. Robyn Dowsing Member Services Administrator (NSW), CEO Institute.

'Kevin shared his in-depth knowledge of the various meditation techniques in a manner that saw beginners and experienced practitioners found interesting, uncomplicated and motivated us to explore them. The instruction was always clear and the exercises easy to perform. The over-riding approach was non-religious, practical and 'well-being' orientated making these sessions so valuable. Many thanks for a wonderful course, Kevin!' Garry Astill, Learning and Development Specialist, Human Resources, Willoughby City Council, Sydney.

'As the solo librarian at the Board, work can be fairly stressful. Kevin's lunchtime meditation course inspired me to restart my meditation practice and I found my stress levels reduced. I enjoyed the variety of meditations and was impressed with Kevin's friendly and professional manner - and his calm soothing voice!' Anna Forsyth, Librarian, NSW ADB, Sydney.

'As CEO of both Privacy NSW and the NSW Anti-Discrimination Board, I am sensitive to the impact stress can have on the health, well-being and productivity of busy staff members. Kevin Hume's course was not only one of the most popular my staff have undertaken, but also of undoubted effectiveness in helping staff find ways of reducing stress and working in a high pressure environment with increased focus and peace of mind' Chris Puplick, President NSW Anti-Discrimination Board & NSW Privacy Commissioner.
