The key for leaders to have a greater impact is to be strategically mindful.
In the typical working day, leaders juggle multiple priorities, stakeholders, and decisions, which can lead to cognitive overload.

Additionally, when leaders are in the cognitive-overload spiral, they can’t be mindful, and working harder won’t help.
