*Kaufmann et al. (2021) highlight that while mindfulness is beneficial for many, it may not be suitable for everyone, particularly those who may feel isolated or overwhelmed by introspective practices. Acknowledging these potential drawbacks is essential for ensuring that mindfulness training is tailored to meet the unique needs of each leader and organization. Mindfulness practices can sometimes trigger unresolved emotional issues, particularly in individuals with trauma backgrounds.
