This Japanese word means "no mind" or still center--the ability to remain calm and focused. Instead of becoming tense or fearful, a person achieves a still center that allows him to respond. Properly defined this is the ability to be open, flexible, and above all, unbiased in all interactions with people.
The Verbal Judo Way of Leadership, p. 42
By George J. Thompson, Gregory A. Walker
A Mushin mind is a mind fully present, aware and free. Mushin refers to an empty mind in the sense that distractions, preoccupations, fears, worries, are absent and are no more an issue for the mind.
Centeredness is essential to effective leadership. It provides
the space in which we choose how to respond, rather than automatically
reacting to a situation. In this space we find the time and awareness to
bring our inspirational leadership skills to bear.
