Abstract and Figures

his paper examines the effects mindfulness meditation has on people’s work lives. In it, we present an analysis of interviews with eight managers and professionals who have a meditation practice. This exploratory study is designed to generate hypotheses about a new topic in the management research literature. Analysis of the interviews suggest that people who practice mindfulness may become more aware of their social and physical environment at work; become more accepting of their work situation; develop more modest, realistic, sustainable work goals; become more selfless at work; become less concerned with material acquisition and wealth; develop a more internal locus of evaluation; become more likely to derive meaning in life from sources other than just work; become better able to cope and remain calm in difficult work situations; become more likely to experience work difficulties as challenges than threats; enjoy their work more; become more adaptable at work; and develop more positive interpersonal relations at work.

Mindful Leadership as a Predictor of Organizational Resilience
Article

... Dane and Brummel (2013) have examined the impact of work-place mindfulness and its positive relations to job performance and negative effect on turnover intention. Hunter and McCormic (2008) suggest that persons who practice mindfulness may be more accepting of their work situation and more adaptable; less concerned with material acquisition and wealth, more likely to derive meaning in life from more sources than just work and to experience work difficulties as challenges than threats, better able to cope and remain calm in difficult work situations and thus; have more positive interpersonal relations at work. However, recently researchers have been more sensitive to the conceptual differences between equanimity and mindfulness. ...

  • Dec 2020
Western models and constructs have dominated research on well-being in India. There is a lacuna of indigenous constructs of well-being developed from our rich archival data and texts. Indigenous constructs are significant as being deeply embedded in the Indian ethos, they can be easily accepted and integrated into therapeutic practice. To fill this lacuna, the construct of Samatva (equanimity) as described in the Bhagavad Gita is examined. The analysis of the text resulted in the identification of 41 core verses referring to Samatva. The major themes extrapolated are i) Samatva as a state of even-mindedness and rising above the dualities ii) The inter-personal dimension of Samatva iii) Samatva and the understanding of the temporality of experience iv) Associated cognitive-affective cultivation practices of Samatva v) Suggested health and spiritual implications of Samatva vi) Samatva and transcendence of Triguna. With the increasing rates of Anxiety and Depression, the cultivation of Samatva has been discussed with implications for holistic well-being, leadership and management.
... Studies have shown that an individual who practices mindfulness as an act that provides a perspective to living in the moment has the potential of experiencing a balanced achievement motivation (Duckworth et al. 2019). People who engage in mindfulness are more aware of external environment and have a better attitude to work (Hunter & McCormick, 2008). It is safe to state that such a life stands the chance of being reflected in the person's work and interactions with others in the workplace (Boud & Walker, 1991;Sørensen, 2007). ...

Conference Paper
  • Dec 2021
Businesses operating in the retail industry must have the main warehouse to store their products and deliver them to their stores on time. The main warehouse should be located in a convenient location relative to the stores it will distribute to. Choosing a suitable warehouse location for companies is a decision making problem. In the conditions of increasing competition, companies need to make the right decisions in order to continue their activities. Today, companies have more than one alternative and more than one criterion when making decisions. In this study, a retail company serving every region of Turkey aims to choose the warehouse in the most suitable location for it. There are more than one alternative and more than one criterion in choosing the most suitable warehouse location. In this case, the company needs a mathematical model to choose the most suitable alternative. In cases where there are more than one alternative and more than one criterion, one of the multi-criteria decision-making techniques can be used. In this research, 9 criteria and 6 alternatives were determined and the TOPSIS method, which is one of the multi-criteria decision-making techniques, was used. The criteria determined in the selection of the most suitable warehouse location; warehouse maintenance cost, monthly rental amount, stock holding capacity, proximity to market, availability of skilled workers, the average distance to the main supplier, infrastructure, movement flexibility and security in the area. Not all criteria have the same degree of importance. Alternatives determined in the selection of the most suitable warehouse location; Erzincan, Ordu, Kirikkale, Sakarya, Istanbul and Antalya. The operation steps of the TOPSIS method, which is one of the multi-criteria decision-making techniques used in this research, are formulated on Excel. In multi-criteria decision-making problems, it has been shown that the process steps can be easily applied in Excel and can give accurate and fast results. When the ranking of the research among the alternatives is examined, it has been proven that the most suitable warehouse location selection is Sakarya. In this way, in problems with more than one alternative and more than one criterion, it is possible to choose the most suitable alternative with the help of a mathematical model. The aim of this study is to show how to determine the most suitable alternative and how it can be formulated on Excel in cases where there are more than one alternative and more than one criterion.

We sought to determine what relationships exist between two personality assessments (the Hogan Personality Inventory and Hogan Development Survey) and two measures of mindfulness (the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire and Mindfulness Attention and Awareness Scale). Given the frequent practice by consultants of using assessments to predict team effectiveness and leader performance, we discuss potential ways to integrate mindfulness-enhancing practices into the coaching of different personality profiles, particularly those profiles prone to higher emotional reactivity, distractible attention, and lacking self- or other-awareness.
Mindful Learning

Article

Mindfulness, achieved without meditation, is discussed with particular reference to learning. Being mindful is the simple act of drawing novel distinctions. It leads us to greater sensitivity to context and perspective, and ultimately to greater control over our lives. When we engage in mindful learning, we avoid forming mind-sets that unnecessarily limit us. Many of our beliefs about learning are mind-sets that have been mindlessly accepted to be true. Consideration is given to some of the consequences that result from a mindful reconsideration of those myths of learning.

This chapter discusses the intricacies of introspection and retrospection in processing experiences and how this relates to the experience of happiness. The retrieval and integration of experiences over time has been found to be subjective and prone to error. The chapter opens with a distinction between the experiencing self and the evaluating or remembering self. These are connected to the constituents of well-being important in empirical studies of happiness and are identified as 'experienced well-being' and 'evaluated well-being'. The inherent subjectivity of these elements jumpstarted the search for more objective measures of happiness. In this regard, Bentham's concept of experienced utility is combined with notions of moment utility and total utility to derive adequate measures of an event's impact on a person's happiness. Issues of dimensionality, separability, and time neutrality are then discussed, followed by the dayreconstruction method. The final section confronts the question of comparing happinessacross countries.
Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction in Massachusetts Correctional Facilities
Article
Mindfulness-based stress-reduction courses were offered in drug units in six Massachusetts Department of Corrections prisons. A total of 1,350 inmates completed the 113 courses. Evaluation assessments were held before and after each course, and highly significant pre- to post-course improvements were found on widely accepted self-report measures of hostility, self-esteem, and mood disturbance. Improvements for women were greater than those for men, and improvements were also greater for men in a minimum-security, pre-release facility than for those in four medium-security facilities. The results encourage further study and wider use of mindfulness-based stress reduction in correctional facilities.
