Perth will be the host city for the 9th Global Conference on Buddhism at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre on 8 & 9 of August 2015.
This conference is not just for Buddhists, it’s for everyone. This becomes even more obvious when you inspect the incredibly diverse array of both Buddhist and non-Buddhist speakers lined up for the event. Go to www.9gcb.org for more information.
Meditation and ‘mindfulness training’ are well accepted these days as important and universal tools for stress management and leadership training among managers and employees, for conflict resolution within closed and small-group environments such as offices and companies, and for training front-line personnel working in the service industries.
