Mindfulness meditation is a practice that involves focusing one’s attention on the present moment and guiding it to one’s breath, bodily sensations or the sounds around, while observing thoughts and emotions as they arise, without judgement or attachment. It is an awareness and acceptance of one’s inner and outer experiences.
“When leaders mentally wander away, they risk missing out on important information and cues about what is occurring. When, on the other hand, leaders are fully present in whatever is taking place, they are better equipped to recognize, interpret and act more appropriately to what is occurring,” the researchers explain.
Moreover, mindfulness cultivates a non-judgmental attitude, allowing leaders to approach everyday situations with openness and curiosity. By reducing the tendency to make snap judgments based on preconceived beliefs or biases, mindful leaders are better able to perceive nuances and consider alternative perspectives.
Additionally, researchers suggest that mindfulness encourages metacognition, the ability to reflect on and regulate one’s own cognitive processes. Mindfulness meditation encourages metacognitive thinking, elevating one’s awareness beyond immediate observations of the self.
