ABOUT PANDIT DASA
AUTHOR OF URBAN MONK
Pandit Dasa arrived in the U.S. in 1980, with his parents having transformed their humble beginnings into a thriving multi-million dollar jewelry business, achieving the American dream. However, when their business faced a dramatic collapse, Pandit found himself on a profound journey of self-discovery. In 1999, he sought deeper meaning by spending six months in Indian monasteries. He then continued his monastic path in New York City, dedicating nearly 15 years to this spiritual life. During this time, he became a sought-after motivational keynote speaker, delivering lectures at numerous universities and inspiring students to focus on their personal well-being. In 2014, after leaving the monastery, Pandit shifted his focus to the corporate world. He began speaking to some of the largest global organizations, using his insights to help them cultivate a more positive and productive workplace culture.

Frequently asked questions
1. How does mindful leadership contribute to organizational success?
Through the development of a healthy corporate culture, increased employee engagement, and improved overall performance, mindful leadership acts as a catalyst for success. Pandit Dasa's skill is not only in clearly stating these ideas but also in converting them into workable plans of action that serve as the cornerstone of your company's development.
2. What does a healthy workplace culture look like?
In a healthy workplace culture, colleagues avoid letting their egos get the best of them. No one needs to be looking over their shoulders. People are willing to collaborate, communicate and share information for the overall growth and development of the organization. Support for individual’s mental health and overall wellbeing is encouraged and supported by its leaders.
3. How can an organization support a healthy work-life balance for its employees?
Since an average employee will be spending more than half of their waking time at work, it is imperative that organizations provide wellness programs, activities, or resources that promote physical and mental well-being, such as onsite fitness facilities, mindfulness workshops, or access to mental health resources.
Employees should be encouraged to take breaks during the workday and not be expected to respond to late emails while spending time with family or on vacation.
4. How can one deal with the stresses of organizational change?
Change, especially the ones we don’t see coming, are very stressful. In the workplace, change can create uncertainty about one’s job which can impact one’s financial stability. While there may not be a whole lot we can do to impact organizational changes, we can make sure we are mentally preparing ourselves for that change. Part of the preparation means taking care of our physical, mental and emotional well-being to offset the stress we might be experiencing. It’s also important to remember that change shakes us out of our comfort zone and forces us to grow.
5. How can mindful communication transform workplace dynamics?
Communication is everything when comes to the workplace. It can build or destroy trust and workplace relationships. Mindful communication means we are listening to understand and not jumping to respond before the other person has finished their train of thought. This requires the development of empathy and trying to understand where the other person is coming from and not jumping to conclusions about others.
It also means that we have fully thought through the message that we will communicate and how that message will impact the recipient and our relationship with the recipient.
6. What’s the biggest impact of mindfulness in the workplace?
Mindfulness practices can be implemented into the workplace. It can be as simple as taking one to two minutes between meetings and taking 10 deeps breath to clear our mind and come to a more calm space. Ideally, we want to avoid taking baggage from previous meetings and interactions into the next one. Another way to practice mindfulness at work is to take short breaks without our devices. This helps give our eyes and mind a break from the constant bombardment of information. These simple mindfulness techniques will help us reduce stress, develop emotional intelligence. and increase productivity.
