Cultivating a Mindful Workplace
Help your employees develop numerous mindsets associated with mindfulness practice, which support a gratifying, enjoyable and creative workplace.
A more mindful workplace, which includes the collective ability to practice mindfulness and align deep values (such as inclusion) with behaviors has numerous researched benefits to an organization's culture and performance. In a recent study conducted by Dr. Brendel and associates, when compared with a control group, those who practiced mindfulness for 45 minutes each week (an average lunch break) for eight weeks, experienced an increase in mindsets associated with reduced misunderstanding and conflict, and increased performance and leadership capacity. Among many others, these mindsets included: Gratitude, Creativity, Tendency to Forgive, and Growth Mindset.
A return on investment for culture transformation efforts is estimated to range between $60,000 - $100,000+, due primarily to turnover savings based on conservative estimates (40% replacement costs/80% overall cost); includes unemployment, COBRA administration, lost productivity, hiring a replacement, orientation, and training.
