Tim Bishop2021-09-01T19:43:43+00:00FRAMING YOUR SET OF MIND
Today Tim is joined by Amon Woulfe, Managing Director of Collective Mind, a group that specialises in reframing and updating people’s mindsets on how they can lift their leadership performance to its best operating level, both on an individual and team level.
Amon has been on a quest to understand the fundamentals of what keeps teams performing at their highest points of stress. Through the latest advancements of neuroscience and biofeedback technology Amon has been able to create unique profiles that allow people to understand and improve their level of performance, increasing their No. 1 competitive advantage: mindset. Having worked with teams operating on the known limits of performance leadership, ranging from sports teams to banks, Amon has the hard work behind him to know that what is important is ‘the dynamics rather than the mechanics of performance.’
In their time together Tim and Amon come together with years of insight behind them to give you the basics necessary to reframe your mindset. By exploring points from the challenges the Top End faces, the importance of balancing information inflow and outflow, to the need of meditation, you will understand the importance of sorting out the shadows that lay underneath your actions.

QUOTES FROM THE PODCAST
“Often you have to disintegrate the level of thinking that you’re at to transition to a higher level”
“What’s the question I don’t want to ask myself. Where’s the place I don’t want to go. If you don’t find those places, under pressure those places will emerge”
“I do believe there is something to which you uniquely need to lend your shoulder to in this lifetime, and it doesn’t need to be something grand, it can be very, very simple. But there is something and you’ll know it because your heart will feel more at ease, and it will feel lighter, and there will be some sense of fulfilment”.
“We don’t need transference of more content into our leaders, we need transformation of our leaders”.
“Mindfulness is the ability to be aware of the present non-judgementally”.
“Whenever I attach to fruit that isn’t mine all I create is suffering”.
