Organizational Mindfulness
All-Secular, All-Science, Performance-Focused Training
A New Category of MBI
Organizational Mindfulness is an entirely new category of mindfulness-based intervention (MBI). Just as MBSR was created as a therapeutic intervention for pain and stress management—and MBCT as a course for psychologists treating clients with cognitive behavioral therapy—Organizational Mindfulness was created from the ground up as an all-secular, all-science course to train mental and emotional skills for personal and organizational performance.
Organizational Mindfulness
Modern mindfulness was conceived to reduce stress, and has been conflated to denote any introspective, calm, or relaxing state. But through a scientific lens, mindfulness is a process of neural training that produces a series of now-predictable outcomes that develop critical mental and emotional skills. Organizational Mindfulness provides an understanding of the mechanics of each neural practice, their science-validated outcomes, and their application for more effective leadership and work.
"In a fast-paced world, increasing numbers of people are exhausted, overwhelmed, and disengaged. Our workplaces are full of burned-out leaders who report little bandwidth for big-picture thinking, for innovation, for truly understanding others, or building strong cultures. The skills to work with our minds, our emotions, and other people are essential – but rarely developed.” - Search Inside Yourself Leadership Institute (SIYLI)"
Mental Traits are Trainable Skills
Our best leaders inspire confidence and trust through traits like authenticity, presence, integrity, and compassion. Our best sales professionals quickly earn trust, establish rapport, and use intuition and influence to move a deal forward. Our best software engineers diminish distraction, engage deeply, and work in a state of creative flow.
Neuroscience has confirmed that these important traits (and many more) are, in fact, trainable mental skills that can be internalized and embodied through intentional neural exercises. Organizational Mindfulness is an expression of this new paradigm. It teaches the science and practical solutions for managing stress, sustaining attention, regulating emotions, navigating change and uncertainty, and resolving many otherwise intractable challenges.
"Organizational Mindfulness programs are designed to develop and strengthen modern work skills. They include solutions for reducing workplace stress, anxiety, distraction, conflict, toxicity, exhaustion, and burnout, while increasing awareness, attention control, human well-being, cognitive performance, and emotional intelligence."
The Organizational Mindfulness Course
Organizational Mindfulness teaches next-generation mindfulness and other neural practices that are being defined by research into the mind, brain, and body. Science has proven the brain’s neuroplasticity—and that its function and structure can be intentionally shaped through mental practice, repetition, and intensity.
The course explores the underlying science, introduces a framework of neural practices, and applies their outcomes to resolve stress, restore attention control, navigate change and uncertainty, cultivate emotional intelligence, work effectively in teams, and build mental strength and resilience.
Learning Portal and Network
Organizational Mindfulness includes 12 hours of live, instructor-led training, delivered online or onsite—supported by a companion Learning Portal integrated into the IOSM Global Network.
The portal provides access to class recordings, slide decks, guided practices, additional self-paced learning, journaled research, expert video insights, and class-wide collaboration—along with network-wide access to curated content, members, and topical forums.
