Karina Furga-Dabrowska

Warsaw partner Karina Furga-Dabrowska’s appointment comes after she launched the firm’s NextMind program, which aims to help its lawyers reduce stress.

In her new role, Ms Furga-Dabrowska will work with Dentons’ talent team and a network of trained in-house mindfulness ambassadors to roll out NextMind more widely across the firm’s offices in Europe and globally and will lead various other mindfulness initiatives within the firm.

She said: “Mindfulness is simply about exercising your mind to improve cognitive ability and mental clarity.

“Neuroscientific research shows that regular mindfulness practice improves resilience, communication, productivity and wellbeing, which are not only beneficial for our people, but also for our bottom line.”
