K. Burtus, MQLE Certified, Nov, 2024
"As a seasoned professional with some experience in mindfulness practices, I was initially skeptical about enrolling in a leadership program with a focus on 'mindfulness.' However, it quickly became clear that Linda deeply understands her field and has the ability to guide a diverse group—regardless of their prior experience—toward meaningful transformation. Her presence and calm leadership style stood out, especially when the group faced challenging interpersonal dynamics. She consistently offered practical, thoughtful solutions and new perspectives that made a real difference. I'm genuinely impressed and believe more organizations should adopt this approach. Mindful, aware leaders are essential for driving progress in today’s complex world."
— M.L. Network Engineer
“I would say this is the most effective leadership training I have ever received in my career (and there have been quite a few I have participated in). This course helped me to recognize my own power and purpose and how to get our of my own way. No one has the ability to hold me back except me. This program has truly been an answer to prayer.”
— M.W. Senior Logistics Manager
"When I first heard about the opportunity to join the Mindfulness Intelligence Leadership program, I’ll admit my initial reaction was an internal eye-roll. Mindfulness? Seriously? We’re already stressed for time! But with encouragement from the higher-ups, I decided to give it a shot. Fast forward a year, and I can’t imagine my teams functioning without the growth and support we’ve gained from Linda’s program. Our collaboration has improved dramatically, communication is clearer and more effective, and we genuinely support one another. The results speak for themselves—we’re performing at levels I didn’t think were possible. This has truly been a game-changer."
— M.G. Group Vice President
"I really like the way Linda does the sessions. The combination of fact, experience and humor makes it easier to digest. I feel more confident in my abilities as a leader, and see how much more impact I can make. I feel more understanding towards my team members; I'm better at reading others and creating a good work environment for those around me. Overall, my stress levels have decreased and I sleep better. I would totally recommend this program"
A. Lindgren, MQLE Certified, Nov, 2024
"I am already getting better results in my professional and personal life! I am becoming a version 2.0 of myself. Should have taking this course 20 years ago and my life would have been so much different! Thank you Linda for giving me all the tools I needed to get in charge of my life and unlock my full potential! To become stronger and having a bigger impact in this one life we have been blessed with. Truly an eye-opening and transformational course, most people could benefit heavily from."
C. Daniels, MQLE Certified, May, 2020
"When everything elevates to a new level in a subject matter you think you’re pretty great at; it turns out there is so much more to learn and develop. That’s how it is in Linda Bjork’s Mind Training for Leaders that I have had the privilege to attend. Linda’s extensive experience where everything is based on science and research in combination with robust program content and her fantastic personality puts this far above any other program I’ve attended. I warmly recommend this program to others."

MQLE Transformational Results
The MQLE Program is designed with fine-tuned building blocks to master change, conflict, and unexpected challenges.
The MQLE Program takes a holistic approach to personal development, with impressive measurable improvements across various aspects of life.
Participants can expect an above 60% increase in efficiency, attention and focus, workplace relationships, and significant improvements in sleep quality. Pair these with a 50% plus decrease in stress, overwhelm, anxiety, and depression. Add to that significant decrease in inflammation in the blood, and it's clear that this method is beneficial for all matters of health.
Measuring money and time, MQLE graduates report substantial salary, compensation, and sales increases while having more time for activities they enjoy. Some graduates make more per month now than they did per year when they started the MQ journey.
While we love having more time and seeing money flow in - there are areas we can't measure as precisely that graduates value the most:
Graduates report life-changing transformations. They are happier than ever, have taken courageous steps they never would have fathomed before MQLE, and feel lighter and freer from letting go of old hurts and grievances. They feel like they finally have found meaning in what they do, feel safe and at home in themselves, and feel whole from making space for their spiritual well-being while having an impact in the world.
The lists go on and tend to be specific to what becomes important to each individual as they get to know themselves deeply, lovingly, and fully along the MQ journey. We can't measure these metrics on paper, but we are sure you resonate with their importance.
*Results above are independently measured when engaging in these methods for eight weeks.
