Maurizio Cortesi, Ph.D.
Maurizio is a human being, a passionate learner and researcher at heart, and a trainer and coach by professional vocation. After his former experiences in management and administration, both in the private and public sectors, he has worked for almost a decade in academia, earning two PhDs (Management Engineering and Economics).
A long-standing mindfulness practicioner himself, he has trained to become a certified MBSR teacher (CFM is the only MBSR-certifying institution in the world), and over time has had the chance to practice with incredibly inspiring teachers, among which the very founders of MBSR and other precious mentors and human beings. He is also a trained educator in the Mindful Schools K-12 curriculum, bringing mindfulness to kids and teenagers in schools around the world. He is devoted to his own personal practice in daily life and to continuous learning consistently attending workshops, seminars and retreats.
Nowadays, he has the great opportunity to support individuals, groups, and organisations, through mindfulness interventions (MBI), MBSR programs, as well as workshops and coaching for personal and professional development. Moreover, he has the privilege of accompanying and coaching Bachelor and Master students, and PhD candidates, at different universities. He practices fluently in three languages (English, French, or Italian), and also speaks Spanish, Luxembourgish, and basic German.
Being human is at the heart of Maurizio's personal journey, and so it is in his professional life. Zegtraining represents an ongoing commitment to learn and share practices and perspectives that can help us be and feel aware, connected to ourselves and to our environment, freer and happier, so that we can more easily and effectively focus on discovering and developing our resources, skills and well-being, helping others do the same along the way, whether it is in the workplace, throughout the studies, or in our private lives.
