Download or read book Spirituality Inc written by Lake Lambert III and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2009-11-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many Americans spirituality and business seem to be polar opposites: one is concerned with lofty questions of ultimate significance, the other with mundane matters of the daily grind. Yet over the last two decades the two have become increasingly linked, and as the barriers between them are broken down, many see this as a revolutionary shift in American business culture. Lake Lambert III provides a comprehensive examination of the workplace spirituality movement, and explores how it is both shaping and being shaped by American business culture. Situating the phenomenon in an historical context, Lambert surveys the role of spirituality in business from medieval guilds to industrial "company towns" right up to current trends in the ever-changing contemporary business environment. Using case studies from specific businesses, such as Chick-fil-A and Hobby Lobby, he analyzes the enhanced benefits and support that workplace spirituality offers to employees, while exposing the conflicts it engenders, including diversity, religious freedom, and discrimination issues. The American workplace today is experiencing dramatic upheaval and change. Spirituality, Inc. offers important insights into the role of religion in this transformation. With employees seeking new ways to strike a proper life-work balance and find meaning in their everyday lives, spirituality in the workplace is a trend that will become increasingly important in the American business landscape. Spirituality, Inc. provides a critical overview of this phenomenon that does not ignore the movement's many positive contributions to the workplace, yet does not overlook the potential for abuse.

Download or read book The Family written by Jeff Sharlet and published by Univ. of Queensland Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A journalist's penetrating and controversial look at the untold story of Christian fundamentalism's most elite organisation- a self-described 'invisible' global network dedicated to a religion of power for the powerful. They are 'the Family' - fundamentalism's avant-garde, waging spiritual war in the halls of American power and around the globe. They consider themselves the 'new chosen'- congressmen, generals and foreign dictators who meet in confidential 'cells', to pray and plan for a 'leadership led by God', to be won not by force but through 'quiet diplomacy'. Jeff Sharlet is the only journalist to have reported from inside its walls. The Family is about the other half of American fundamentalist power - not its angry masses, but its sophisticated elites. In public, they host Prayer Breakfasts; in private they preach a gospel of 'biblical capitalism', military might and American empire. Citing Hitler, Lenin and Mao as leadership models, the Family's current leader, Doug Coe, declares, 'We work with power where we can, build new power where we can't'. Part history, part investigative journalism, The Family is a compelling account of how fundamentalism came to be interwoven with American power and the no-holds-barred economics of globalisation. No other book about the Right has exposed the Family or revealed its far-reaching impact on democracy, and no future reckoning of fundamentalism will be able to ignore it.

Book excerpt: Grow Spiritually! Grow your Career! This Book Shows you How. Christ was the most effective executive in the human race. The results He achieved are second to none. His leadership style changed the world. In only three years, He defined a mission and formed strategies and plans to carry it out. With a staff of twelve unlikely men, He organized Christianity, which has grown to have 2.8 billion proponents today, is international in scope, and has branches in all the 234 countries throughout the world. Jesus recruited, trained, and motivated disciples to become apostles, ordinary men to become extraordinary. He is the greatest manager and developer of people ever. How he did this and how it relates to the workaday world is the basis for this book. Businesspeople study the management qualities of history's great business leaders. It seems as if every other month is marked by a high-profile CEO's or consultant's new book promising to pave the way to personal or business success. Doesn't it make equal sense to examine the experiences and teachings of a successful person such as Jesus Christ? Studying His corporate culture (beliefs and behavior) and management style show you how to take Christianity into the workplace in a positive, productive and acceptable way that motivates others. Practicing Jesus's way of managing and motivating people earns respect from your people and peers. His ways win support and cooperation. Thus, it develops a sphere of influence, the key to effective leadership. His ways combine spiritual intelligence with business intelligence, showing you how to enhance the career development of others. This offers the opportunities to not only help others thrive and flourish but also for you to have a most successful career and happy personal life. An African proverb sums it up: "If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The more I read the Bible, the more evident it becomes that everything I have ever taught or written about effective leadership over the past 25 years, Jesus did to perfection. He is simply the greatest leadership role model of all time." Effective leadership—whether on the job, in the community, at church, or in the home—starts on the inside. In this revised classic, renowned leadership expert Ken Blanchard guides you through the process of discovering how to lead like Jesus. Before you can hope to lead anyone else, you must know who you are. Every leader must answer two critical questions. One deals with your relationship to Christ. The other with your life purpose. Whose are you going to be? Who are you going to be? Learning to lead like Jesus can be described as the process of aligning two internal domains (the heart and the head) and two external domains (the hands and the habits). These four dimensions of leadership form the outline for this very practical and transformational book, from which you will learn how to: Integrate your faith with your role and responsibility as a leader Identify your priorities Build your relationship with God in a new and personal way Move from success to significance Lead out of service rather than self-interest Put the love of Jesus into action With simple yet profound principles from the life of Jesus, and dozens of stories and leadership examples from his own life, Ken Blanchard once again shows us the way effective leaders lead.

Download or read book Redeeming Your Time written by Jordan Raynor and published by WaterBrook. This book was released on 2023-09-26 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manage your time the way Jesus managed his with a biblical antidote to swamped to-do lists and hurried schedules. “A highly practical road map.”—Mark Batterson, New York Times bestselling author and lead pastor of National Community Church Despite the overwhelming amount of resources for time management and work-life balance, the ability to cultivate the efficiency and equilibrium needed to manage all our worthy pursuits can often feel frustratingly out of reach. The reason for our struggle is that productivity and time-management systems focus on individual habits rather than more meaningful and lasting lifestyle changes. But as it turns out, there is a better way to reach our full potential. We don’t need just another approach to changing our habits. What we need is an operating system that takes into account the full scope of our lives. In these pages, bestselling author Jordan Raynor presents this system, using seven powerful time- management principles drawn from the example of how Jesus lived: 1. Start with the Word: Find meaningful connection with the author of time daily. 2. Let Your Yes Be Yes: Accept only the commitments you can fulfill. 3. Dissent from the Kingdom of Noise: Create room for silence, stillness, and reflection. 4. Prioritize Your Yeses: Confidently maintain your commitments. 5. Accept Your “Unipresence”: Focus on one important thing at a time. 6. Embrace Productive Rest: Live the God-designed rhythms of rest which are productive for our goals and souls. 7. Eliminate All Hurry: Embrace productive busyness while ruthlessly eliminating hurry from our lives. With these principles, you’ll see how Jesus managed his time on earth and how he responded to human constraints much like the ones you face today. More than that, you’ll discover corresponding practices that will help you embrace the best, most Christlike version of yourself possible: purposeful, present, and wildly productive.
