The Mindful Corporation

The Mindful Corporation - Paul Nakai, Ron Schultz

The Mindful Corporation by Paul Nakai and Ron Schultz, subtitled Liberating the Human Spirit at Work, offers a clear direction for organizations that want to operate in a more conscious way. In a business world often driven by speed, pressure and short-term results, the authors present an alternative approach in which awareness, attention and the human side of work take centre stage. They argue that organizations function best when the people within them are able to bring their full potential to what they do.

In this book The Mindful Corporation the authors show how slowing down actually enables an organization to work more effectively and therefore more productively. By paying attention to what is happening in the present moment, both individuals and teams can make better decisions, communicate more openly and respond more calmly to change. Case studies of organizations that are already on the path to mindfulness illustrate how employees and leaders can become more connected to their own resilience and flexibility, and how this strengthens the organization as a whole.

The book combines practical insight with a broader vision of what work can be when it is rooted in awareness and respect for the human spirit. An inspiring book for anyone interested in mindfulness, leadership, organizational development, conscious business and a more human approach to work.
