“Mindfulness” is crucial for entrepreneurs during economic slowdown.

     This finding is documented in the research by an ICO NIDA faculty, Assistant Professor Dr. Peerayuth Charoensukmongkol, published in the Organization Management Journal (SCImago/Scopus indexed).

     His study showed that entrepreneurs who exhibit a higher level of mindfulness demonstrate a higher degree of improvisational behavior, represented by their ability to perform well under pressure, develop creative resource

     deployment, and demonstrate perseverance despite the perceived difficulties they encounter. The findings also reveal that the entrepreneurs who exhibited a higher degree of improvisational behavior achieved higher business performance and had lower stress

     Given the difficulties that businesses inevitably face during the economic slowdown, it is crucial for entrepreneurs to exhibit these characteristics that can enhance their ability to make strategic executions quickly in response to unforeseen opportunities and threats that increase their firms’ chances of survival and maintain satisfactory performance in the pressure-filled business environment.
