Louise Chester first started practising mindfulness in 1994. It helped her retain equanimity and balance, while sustaining a pressured senior career in investment banking and fund management. In 2010, she established Mindfulness at Work, to support organisations with highly-effective mindfulness training; enabling their teams to have greater focus and clarity, deliver greater value, and thrive not just at work, but in all areas of their life.

As trusted advisor, Mindfulness at Work offers best-in-class programmes, both online and face-to-face, to over 200 organisations in every region of the world. Having introduced over 100,000 to mindfulness in the UK and many thousands more through the global Potential Project network, Louise and her team are uniquely placed to advise on how to enable organisational excellence through evidence-based mindfulness training. Louise has also contributed to two forthcoming books, Potential Project’s ‘The Mind of the Leader’ and ‘Conscious Capitalism – the Workbook’. Both to be published by Harvard Business Press early in 2018.
