The Leader's Way


For all the madness happening to our country no thanks to inept power hungry individuals with only their own selfish agenda's, may i suggest this book. The Leader's Way Business, Buddhism and Happiness in an Interconnected World Dalai Lama XIV Bstan-'dzin-rgya-mtsho, Laurens van den Muyzenberg
Reviews:
A"As a study of Buddhism and its relevance to globalisation, it has a lot to say. It applies the concepts of Buddhism to businessA" decision-making using concepts such as the 'Right Way', interdependence and impermanence,. To simplify, it's a Hippocratic, do-no-harm creed: companies should have integrity, leader's 'mindfulness', to act for the greatest good.Many reader's will value it. There's much to learn, nothing to offend - just leave your cynicism at the door.A"Director, June 2008This book examines capitalism and Buddhism in a fascinating way. Everybody in business who is seriously interested in responsible entrepreneurship will recognise the issues. The book adds a valuable dimension to the values and ethical standards that form the basis for responsible leadership in business."Prof. C.O. Herkstroter, former CEO of Shell and Chairman of the Board of ING.
