Thanks to John, David and Wise Leader! Great scoop.
From the article:
Develop Awareness– Great leaders are self aware, organizationally aware, culturally aware, contextually aware, and emotionally aware. They value listening, engaging, observing, and learning over pontificating. They value sensitivity over insensitivity and humility over hubris. Leaders who come across as if they know everything haven’t fooled anyone – except themselves. Delete the scoop?

New research suggests that meditation or any other mood-enhancing activity can serve as a nutrient for the human body.
“Positive emotion, positive social connections, and physical health influence one another in a self-sustaining, upward-spiral dynamic,” concludes a research team led by psychologist Bethany Kok of the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences. It found upbeat emotions inspired by a meditative practice led to greater feelings of connectedness with others, which positively impacted “a biological resource that has been linked to numerous health benefits.”

Very interesteing concept shared here about coherence ~ the fit between value creation for customers, its capabilities, and its products and services. Thanks David.
From the article ~
How can companies be more successful and executives less frustrated? They need to find what Booz calls “coherence.” That means a fit between the way a company creates value for customers, its capabilities and its products and services. Not surprisingly, at coherent firms, 57% of survey-takers said they enjoyed above-industry-average revenue growth. At firms that were rated “incoherent,” only 18% reported growth above the industry average, and 36% of that group reported growth below the industry average. Booz has run this study before. Last year it got similar results, though this year was even worse. For instance, last year 53% of managers didn’t feel their company’s strategy would lead to success. That’s a poor showing, but not as bad as this year’s 64%. Delete the scoop?

Twenty minutes of yoga is better for boosting brain activity than vigorous exercise for the same amount of time, a study has found. 
David McGavock's curator insight,

While the data for this study is not presented, the outcome makes sense. Exercise with attention practice would likely have more benefit for the brain-body than just exercise. An interesting line of research. I wonder if anyone has replicated the results. Delete the scoop?
