This article provides a review of the relevant literature and research results related to developing the psychosocial skills of leaders to facilitate adaption to the requirements of the modern economy. It is important to specify the broad spectrum of the direct and indirect positive effects of developing mindfulness, which results from performing psychoeducational activities in the form of mental training. These benefits can be analyzed from an individual perspective (improved mental fortitude, concentration, productivity) and from the perspective of entire organizations (competitive advantage). It is also worth noting that these training methods have been successfully utilized for many years in sports for the purpose of achieving optimal performance, while their presence in business is best described as marginal. It is also important to take into account new trends in management and actively incorporate innovative methods into HR policies and strategies as part of positive MBIs (mindfulness-based interventions), which have been utilized by some international corporations for several years.
