Can we hone the ability to be mindful?
The above scenario could just be a happenstance. But what if it is not? What makes people/employees believe they can get away with their behaviour? Is it that so long as it does not affect their appraisal it is fine? What about the 360-degree performance appraisal? Forget about the formal system, what about the negative publicity through word of mouth? Some may say that it may be because Mr Mohan could be lost in his world and could not have really noticed Neela. But is this absent-mindedness fine? Was it not important for him to take care of that moment? Taking care of the moment can have a terrific impact on the other person whom we are with and therefore on our combined future. Some mindfulness would have helped Mr Mohan. What do you think? Let me give some more examples.
