    Integrating Contemplative Practice: In ourselves and in our classrooms

    This Professional Development Workshop (PDW) is based in the assertion that governance of systems and structures begins with the inner consciousness of the individuals within them (Scharmer & Kaufer, 2013). The objective of the PDW is threefold. First, the PDW will model three specific contemplative practices that can be incorporated in the classroom and/or in participant’s personal practice. Secondly, the PDW will provide a forum for sharing best- practices in incorporating contemplative practices in the classroom and/or in one’s personal practice. Finally, the PDW will provide an opportunity for interested participants to collaborate in a future research project to assess the extent and use of contemplative practices by management scholars.
