Drawing on a decade of introducing mindfulness to managers in organisational settings this article identifies six key insights: from how to define and explain mindfulness to leaders through to ethical issues of the purposes to which mindfulness is put. Mindful leadership is not a template. Rather, it offers enlivening and humanising prospects for leadership, with its encouragement to see reality and challenge orthodoxies, to put a primary value on the well-being of others and how we live and lead now.
