Mindfulness in the Workplace

Every day our minds are at work—creating new things, organizing, feeling, assessing, and thinking. Although not technically a muscle, the brain functions like one in the sense that it can be trained to improve different cognitive functions. This session will provide insight into how we can train the brain to allow us to be more calm, productive, and happy!

BREACHED! in partnership with Booz Allen Hamilton

BREACHED! is an interactive and dynamic exercise where participants role-play executive-level positions in response to a cyberattack. The exercise scenario encourages participants to work together and choose next steps to best respond to the evolving information. BREACHED! participants will learn about enterprise-wide incident response at the executive level through a safe and controlled environment, to prepare and understand the key actions required during a cyberattack.

*Pre-Registration required. The registration link will be available on the virtual event platform after you’ve registered for the 2021 AIAA AVIATION Forum.
