Bringing Mindfulness into the Workplace

There’s a natural tendency to view different elements of our lives as being unique and distinct from one another: what we do at home, or what we do as part of our personal growth journey, is somehow fundamentally different from what we do at work. So what can we do, both as individuals and a collective, to bring those same mindful traits into the workplace? That's the question we explore today with Marc Lesser, founding CEO of the Search Inside Yourself Leadership Institute.
