Why choose Mindfulness and Wellbeing at Work?

Mindfulness training has become increasingly popular in a variety of workplace settings in recent years owing to an ever increasing body of research supporting its’ effectiveness. Many global organisations have led the way in providing Mindfulness training for their employees such as Google, Apple, Deutsche Bank, Proctor & Gamble and Yahoo to name but a few.

Longer working hours and heavy workloads lead us to live increasingly on autopilot whereby we automatically rush from one task to the next throughout our day. Present moment awareness provides us with the opportunity to stop and pause in the present moment. This gives us the space to evaluate a situation clearly and to look at alternate perspectives rather automatically reacting to events.

The ability to mindfully stop and pause also provides us with increased access to our own emotional intelligence, empathy and ability to self-regulate. This approach can greatly improve communication while effectively managing conflict and improving morale in the workplace.

Mindfulness can also improve effective leadership through increased perceptivity and insight enabling leaders to become more responsive to the needs of groups. Likewise, greater emotional and mental flexibility coupled with enhanced creative thinking and insight can empower leaders to inspire their teams.

Daniel Goleman coined the term ‘Emotional Intelligence’ and recommends the development of four key areas for leaders and their workforces. Mindfulness training can greatly improve our skills in the following areas:

  1. Self-Awareness – The ability to read your own emotions and recognize their impact while using gut feelings to guide decisions.
  2. Self-Management – Involves controlling your emotions and impulses and the ability to adapt to changing circumstances.
  3. Social Awareness – The ability to sense, understand and react to others’ emotions while comprehending social networks.
  4. Relationship Management – The ability to inspire, influence and develop others while managing conflict.

(Working with Emotional Intelligence, Daniel Goleman, 1998)
