Ark Associates: Mindfitness Programme

Posted on 31 July 2025

As many of us head for a summer break I've been thinking about my contribution for clients in the autumn and beyond.

This has been prompted by recent conversations with my own coach Michael Carroll (author of The Mindful Leader) and others about "later life" achievements, wisdom and capabilities.

Think about the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Beethoven, Mother Teresa, Federer, Nadal, Nicklaus, Langer, Dolly Parton, Michaelangelo, Titian, Judi Dench - all of whom achieved superbly, late into their lives and careers.  

So what? Why would that interest you?

Mind fitness is a universal necessity, whatever our walk of life. So that's my focus. I've got much to offer from my experience and learning over the years. I can provide anything from introductory sessions to full bespoke programmes for leaders, teams and organisations.

"Mind fitness" is the ability to create and sustain a healthy level of mental wellbeing, mindset and performance. We live in a VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous) world so having a fit mind has never been so important.

But why is this relevant to you? I believe you may be one of the leaders who has experienced the benefits of developing their own mind, skills and abilities already in life.... yet still want more. Maybe less stress, better relationships, clearer thinking? Or, possibly exploring purpose, meaning and fulfilment?
