Too many of us stillbelieve that our work selves and our real selves, our professionaland personal lives, are separate entities. This book is about howthat concept is slowly, but surely, changing. It is about why it ischanging. And, most important, it is about why it must change. C.Michael Thompson takes a compelling look at the connection betweenour inner lives and our work lives and shows how the development ofthe individual spirit can trigger not just personal fulfillment,but much-needed organizational change.
