Summary
We may be living in a free-market economy, but that does not mean we are encouraged to express our emotions freely and authentically in organizations. Instead, societal and organizational norms, behavioral expectations (especially in customer service interactions), and even political considerations (e.g. laughing at a boss’s boring joke) put employees’ emotional resilience to the test. Thus how well employees can regulate, or manage, their emotions has implications for their performance and well-being at work and, given that work tends to occupy a central role in most adults’ lives, also for their effectiveness and well-being overall (Weiss & Cropanzano, 1996). In this chapter, we attempt to synthesize recent research on the role of mindfulness in emotion regulation by developing an integrative mindful emotion management framework.
