Kate Mathers and Gitana Gatavek co-founded MindDEP because they saw the pressing need for solutions to help leaders stay productive, innovative, and calm in the face of never-ending ‘to do’ lists, flooding inboxes, and increasingly challenging demands in a highly competitive world; solutions for leaders who are consistently under stress, yet need to lead with clarity, agility and cognitive flexibility in order to cope with the complex and demanding 21st century working environment.With Kate’s 15+ years of mindfulness training experience in both the public and corporate sector, together with Gitana’s 10+ years of experience as a wellness coach interpreting scientific data around stress and stress recovery, they have established a unique offering for organisations looking to create measurable change.
