Publisher's Synopsis
Loss of morale, burnout and attrition, especially among professional and managerial employees, have become issues of serious and increasing concern for both individuals and their companies and organizations. Many in the workforce are experiencing a nagging, difficult-to-pinpoint frustration-a growing sense of being too driven, with little or no time for family, important relationships or other personal values. They long for a greater sense of fulfillment and spiritual growth in what they are doing. They look for community and meaning in their jobs. Your Soul at Work addresses these concerns in two ways: It uses universally agreed concepts of spirituality as a framework and places the process of career planning into this larger viewpoint. It goes on to present a number of very practical, workshop-proven tools and techniques, including a detailed Career and Life Workbook. Nicholas Weiler and Stephen Schoonover, two seasoned career experts, present a strategy that has been fine-tuned and used very successfully for many years in a broad spectrum of career specialties across the world, including such Fortune 500 companies as IBM, AT&T, Hewlett-Packard, Lockheed Martin, General Electric, Citibank, Xerox, Sun Microsystems, Sprint, Eastman Kodak, Apple and Pfizer. Your Soul at Work differs from the many spiritually oriented "self-help" books and the business-oriented "how-to" career development books by bridging the gap between straight spiritual and straight business writing. It will enable readers to integrate their career endeavors with their more personal and spiritual needs and to ultimately find vocations and lives with real meaning. †
