Description
What if the key to a satisfying and rewarding career is found NOT in the workplace, but in more basic values: home, heart and health? Forsaking the jargon of typical business books, "Triumph from Failure" defines happiness that anyone can achieve. The authors take their search for meaning in work and life to elemental levels: eating, drinking, working, sleeping, imagining, kindness, rhythm, beauty, and understanding. The book shows how imbalance in these fundamental activities can lead to crippling negativity in one's self, at home and in the boardroom. Good intentions and positive attitudes don't insure lasting change, but that small, simple steps can help everyone stockbroker or stevedore, manicurist or managing director recover a sense of belonging and balance. A simple and effective approach to achieving business success, "Triumph from Failure" should appeal to readers at every level of business, because its advice speaks to everyone and can be applied in everyday life.
