The Mindful CEO Playbook

Resilience, ROI & Results

Discover the proven neuroscience strategies transforming mindful leadership from concept into measurable healthcare outcomes. Alex Yarijanian, CEO of Carenodes and host of the VBCA Podcast, breaks down the practical tools executives need to drive resilience, productivity, and value-based results.

In this actionable session, you'll uncover:

- How just 11 cumulative hours of mindful practice can physically rewire your brain, calming the amygdala and sharpening your leadership clarity.
- Real-world data shows that mindfulness drives a 28% reduction in workplace stress and generates up to 62 extra productivity minutes per employee each week.
- A simple, step-by-step guide to mindfulness practices that combat burnout and boost executive performance in value-based healthcare.
- Case studies (including insights from Aetna) that quantify mindfulness ROI in healthcare leadership and organizational resilience.

Whether you're a healthcare CEO, value-based care leader, or executive aiming to achieve peak performance, this masterclass gives you the neuroscience-backed roadmap to elevate your leadership approach.
