It includes three components:


  1. Live training: Online or in-person sessions, delivered in modules (12-16 hours)
  2. Virtual practice: Weekly exercises and resources delivered by email (28 days)
  3. Capstone webinar: Reconnect with fellow alumni to set a plan for continuation (1 hour)

About SIY Global

The Diversity Lab partners with John Puts, a certified SIY facilitator who is part of the broader SIY Global.Bridging mindfulness practices, the latest in leadership research, emotional intelligence, and modern neuroscience, we work with people and organizations to unlock their full potential.


The Search Inside Yourself program (SIY) was born in 2007 when a team of experts in mindfulness, neuroscience, leadership and emotional intelligence gathered to develop an internal course for Google employees. The aim of the program was to help people develop the skills of leadership, mindfulness, empathy, and overall emotional intelligence to create the conditions for individual and collective thriving. Search Inside Yourself quickly became (and still is) quite a popular training program within Google. In 2012, due to the high demand from external organizations, SIY's founders spun off the program and created the independent non-profit educational institute they called the Search Inside Yourself Leadership Institute, SIYLI (pronounced like "silly"–they wanted to keep it light!). SIYLI has been operating in over 50 countries around the world, with over 100,000 people attending its programs and events.


In 2022 SIYLI launched SIY Global, its public benefit corporation subsidiary, focusing on bringing programming to enterprises around the world. SIYLI continues to operate, now partnering with communities to support the work of those on the front lines of society: civil servants, public & mental health workers, nonprofits, and educators. SIY Global's programs–whether delivered in person or online–help individuals and teams develop the skills they need to thrive in today's complex and fast-paced working environments, leading to improved organizational performance. Our team works extensively with Google as well as SAP, Disney, Procter & Gamble, Salesforce, and many more corporations around the world.
