A mindful revolution is reshaping the workplace.
The world's most dynamic businesspeople are using
mindfulness to become happier and more fulfilled at work - and more successful.

mindful managers are using meditation, yoga and other mindfulness techniques to
boost leadership, reduce stress and improve health.
Featuring insights from revitalised employees, high-level
managers at global companies and meditation masters, Mindful Work is an
inspirational guide to the upsurge in mindfulness among companies as diverse as
Google, Facebook and General Mills. Blending timeless insights and modern-day
management theory, Gelles explains the practical benefits of the mindfulness
boom and offers a programme for changing the way we work - a change that will
make us less stressed, more focused and happier.
