What we did

A six-week mindfulness course plus further training helped employees recharge, focus and thrive at the fast-paced global management consultancy McKinsey & Company.

What they said

‘On every point above my last week was better – more focused, more engaged, more happy – than an average week before the course.’ – McKinsey & Company participant

‘I’m more aware of what triggers my anxiety. I’m calmer and I believe I’m handling better the stress at work which makes me nicer at home!’ – McKinsey & Company participant

‘I’m getting less stressed about the to-do list. I find that I’m more easily able to bring myself down in bed at night when work things start playing on my mind and stopping me from sleeping.’ – McKinsey & Company participant
