The Role of Mindful Managers in Creating Work-Life Balance

You were pushing your team on a daily basis. It’s “always on” for you, and you expect the same for them.

The only problem?

They’re exhausted. They’re not as productive as they once were. They don’t execute as efficiently as they did three months ago, and the year just flew by…

Working 60-hour weeks isn’t letting them recharge so they can hit it with their best efforts, but you don’t see that.

You don’t see that you’re pushing them beyond their limits. You don’t see that your drive is driving them into the ground.

You’re worried that if you slow down, you’ll stop. But if you want positive results, if you’re going to hear the roar of the crowd, if you want your corporate dashboard to highlight your success…

It’s time to get off the hamster wheel.

It’s time to focus your mind.

It’s time to become aware of what you’re doing…to yourself and everyone around you.

The research is quite clear. Employees perform better and are happier when their managers and leaders are more mindful.

While mindfulness is not a new practice, its effectiveness in business is more apparent than ever, especially with today’s pixelated life.
