The ability to be present and mindful — to stay focused intentionally without judgment — is a developed skill. Teams that skillfully channel their focus and stay open are best equipped to rise to the challenges of an ever-changing environment.
The Power of Mindfulness
A study by the Kaiser Family Foundation found that nearly 40% of Americans feel that stress has negatively affected their mental health. Aside from being taxing, stress can lead to physical health effects and sap the vitality of teams at work.
Mindfulness gives employees the tools, ability, and space to think — to be truly present — leading to mental agility, resilience, and true situational awareness. This reduces emotional exhaustion, increases creativity, and fosters compassion and empathy, giving your team the edge needed in today’s competitive world.
Additionally, increasing mindfulness at work can lead to higher levels of commitment and ownership, increased engagement, and solidifies working teams, reducing needless turnover.
