Welcome to Mindful Management — a publication dedicated to advancing Human-Centered Project Management through the lens of mental health, leadership, and the growth mindset.

Founded by Dr. Max Boller, Mindful Management bridges decades of project leadership experience with research-based strategies to support healthier, more resilient workplaces. Here, we challenge outdated project norms and offer a new path forward—one that values people as much as performance.

At the heart of this work are two core beliefs:

  • That project success depends on human sustainability, not just task completion

  • And that with a growth mindset, leaders and teams can continuously adapt, learn, and improve—even in the face of complexity and change

Through in-depth articles, frameworks, and tools, this publication equips readers to:

  • Apply human-centered principles to planning, execution, and team management

  • Reduce burnout and emotional fatigue across project lifecycles

  • Cultivate self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and mindful leadership

  • Create psychologically safe environments where learning and growth are encouraged

  • Drive outcomes that are not only effective—but sustainable

Whether you're a project manager, leader, consultant, or advocate for workplace well-being, Mindful Management offers thought leadership and practical strategies for navigating the future of work with purpose and resilience.
