Mindfulness-based interventions in organizations offer the potential to build individual and institutional resilience, engage employees, and address workplace stress. Drawing from the latest research in neuroscience and behavioral science, Mindfulness in the Workplace explains how this approach can be used as a change management and organizational development strategy. The book proposes that OD and HR professionals are best suited to understand the complexity of implementing change in organizational systems and therefore should be the ones bringing mindfulness in-house. Chapters cover how to identify the key stakeholders and how to work with them on creating a mindfulness initiative, how to adapt the language of mindfulness to the context of the organization, how to establish metrics, and measure return on investment. Case studies from companies including Capital One Finance, illustrate why organizations choose to implement mindfulness, how they do so, the challenges they face, lessons learned, and the results.
