Mindfulness at Work Using mindfulness to improve performance, leadership and wellbeing.

Overview There is a growing interest in applying mindfulness in organisational settings. We have seen large companies such as SAP and Google teach mindfulness practice to their employees. But, what does this look like in practice and how might individuals use this approach to navigate their own business environments?
