Abstract
Mindfulness is a cognitive strategy that can be employed by leaders and managers to counteract the often negative and sometimes overwhelming factors of stress, including ever-flowing information, data, and demands for attention, decisions, and accountability. Scientific research has shown that mindfulness can heighten productivity, creativity and innovation, and overall effectiveness. Mindfulness practices can, over time, alter brain chemistry and produce changes in neural circuits, often leading to reductions in perceived stress, increases in empathy, and broader emotional and cultural intelligence through heightened perception. Utilizing the benefits of mindfulness can fuel strategic leadership and management as well as individual and organizational success.
