The Gift of Focus with Dandapani

  • The Meadows 1945 The Meadows Lane Raleigh, NC, 27606 United States (map)

For this year's Signature Event, join us for a morning workshop on The Gift of Focus with Dandapani! We'll have a soft start with coffee and a light breakfast at 8:30 am followed by a workshop from 9 am to 12 pm. You and your guests will learn practical tools & insights to help you lead and sustain a purpose-focused life! Then stay for lunch and connect with other EO'ers until 1 pm.

From the mundane to the important, from the habitual to the occasional, all tasks have a purpose. So shouldn’t life have a purpose as well? When you are clear on your purpose in life, you can build your entire life around it. But in order to know our purpose in life we must have the ability to focus so we can sustain a state of self-reflection long enough to discover what it is we want out of life.

With clear definitions and practicable exercises, Dandapani turns learning how to focus into a simple part of your everyday routine, resulting in sustainable change.

Whether you are seeking better results as a parent, a leader, or even a listener, this workshop will illustrate how practicing the skill of focus can drastically improve productivity, relationships, mental health, and happiness and permanently lay to rest mental maladies such as anxiety, stress, worry, fear, and distraction. And ultimately gifting us the ability to direct awareness and energy toward achieving our life goals by living a purpose-focused life. He’s received rave reviews from around the world and it is an event you won’t want to miss.

EO Raleigh Durham members, SLPs, Prospective Members, and Strategic Partners may attend for free, and all other attendees may attend for just $100. Every participant will receive Dandapani's book.

Who is Dandapani?

Dandapani is a Hindu priest, entrepreneur, and a former monk of 10 years. After graduating from university with a degree in Electrical Engineering he left it all behind to become an ordained Hindu monk under the guidance of one of Hinduism’s foremost spiritual leaders of our time, Sivaya Subramuniyaswami. For 10 years he lived a life of serious personal discipline and training at his guru’s cloistered monastery in Hawaii.

When his vows expired, he chose to venture out into the world making New York City his home. He works with entrepreneurs and some of the top athletes in the world in helping them understand and leverage their minds so that they can be the best at what they do. He does this by empowering them with tools and teachings that have been used by Hindu monks of his tradition for thousands of years. Among his clients are companies such as Fortress Investment Group, ICONIQ, McKinsey, AmericanExpress, Bloomberg LP, Sprinklr, Nike, Ribbit Capital, RedVentures, and more. 

His book, The Power of Unwavering Focus, published by Portfolio and Penguin Random House is being translated into 23 languages. And his TEDx talk has over 6.5 million views. He currently lives in Nosara, Costa Rica, where he and his wife are passionately creating a 33-acre Hinduspiritual sanctuary and botanical garden to further their mission.
