Reviews / Votes
This book cuts right to the chase in speaking about spiritual-based leadership in a business setting. With high ranking corporate officials from the likes of such multi-national companies as Motorola, Franklin Covey, Infosys and Ernst & Young - the book takes a chainsaw to the myth that a stringent corporate culture devoid of human values is the best path to success. It tears at the fabric of the stereotypical consciousness that business is just business - by allowing these corporate executives to share their experiences which exalt characteristics such as compassion, humility, service, and intuition in daily business. Read the full review and listen to a podcast of an interview with author Peter Pruzan - The WorkLife Monitor.More details
