How mindfulness is related to productivity!
"During my study of the relationship between mindfulness and leader effectiveness, 100% of the leaders I interviewed (all having months or years of prior mindfulness training and practice) linked mindfulness to improvement in their personal and professional lives. The majority described this as being significant, often using terms such as “profound,” or “life-changing.” "

Dear Chandana,
This specific cited Internet document does not prove that mindfulness is related to productivity in any way.
The web page with a catchy title starting with a word "Research" looks like an expert opinion or a personal communication, but it is not an academic research report.
According to the current presentation, the research findings seem to have low credibility, as they come from a non-peer reviewed source. In any case, there is an ethical issue related to this research reporting in this Internet document, because the literature review, methodology, results and discussion are not communicated. Furthermore, there is no clear reference to the original published research paper or specific book section.
I would recommend searching for the academic publication that this author refers to in his personal communication or getting in touch with him for further information.
Finally, the EI is a very trendy, but controversial area in organizational behavior, and other competing theories may be much more relevant for explaining productivity in the workplace.
Kindly,
Evelina
As Evelina mentioned, in order for any reporting or findings to be validated, they must first have gone through rigorous review process of the procedures through which findings were arrived at. Although mindfulness is arguably useful, we still don't know how much variance in productivity it explains. Moreover, agility has been drawing more attention recently from the academic community and it could very well have greater impact or be coupled with mindfulness. Overall, making inferences is not easy.
