Mintealogy | Well-being & Leadership in Business
An ancestral art to reinvent modern leadership
In a professional world in search of meaning, where organizations are facing complex challenges, leadership can no longer be reduced to rapid decision-making or operational efficiency. It must also embody listening, authenticity, inclusion, and collective well-being.
It is in this spirit that Mintealogy stands out as a precious source of inspiration, drawing on the art of Mint Tea to nourish renewed leadership, more human, more aligned and more sustainable.
What is Mintealogy?
Mintealogyis a discipline developed from the Moroccan tradition of Mint Tea , mixing art, science, history and symbolism.
She suggests using the tea ritual as a managerial practice , a tool to ease tensions, encourage listening and cultivate harmony in teams.
At Maison NANA1807 , we have transposed this ancestral art to the heart of the company to support leaders, executive committees and managers in a profound transformation of their leadership posture.
Well-being and Leadership | Two Essential Allies
A good leader is not just a strategist; he is above all a human being capable of embodying balance and serenity.
Mintealogy teaches that personal well-being is the first step in guiding others with kindness and clarity.
Why are well-being and leadership inseparable?
- Because a calm leader makes better decisions.
- Because he inspires trust and respect around him.
- Because he knows how to handle the emotions and tensions of his team without getting lost in them.
The Mint Tea ritual thus becomes a living metaphor : it takes time, attention, and patience to create a perfect infusion… just as it takes to guide a team to success.
