This is a collection of short vignettes by a Zen practitioner who is also the founder and CEO of a successful company. Each vignette frames a different aspect of Zen practice and connects it to an aspect of running a business. The idea is to bring the concepts of Zen into the business world, to help the reader become more adept at dealing with the daily challenges of work, while integrating the spiritual into the business realm, where it is not usually welcomed. I connect with these ideas and could imagine how useful this book would be on the bookshelf next to my desk, to consult when I face a new challenge or stress while I am working. Each vignette could bear multiple readings and reveal something new every time, in light of the context in which it is read. I particularly appreciated the Nine Practices for being more in connection with yourself while at work and the Z.B.A. Manifesto at the back of the book, and plan to consult both regularly.

HTML: Entrepreneur Marc Lesser built his company, Brush Dance, from a tiny recycled-paper venture operated out of his garage into a multimillion-dollar publisher of greeting cards and calendars. Armed with an MBA, this founder and CEO grappled with the usual challenges of running a company: meeting payroll and balancing cashflow, hiring and firing employees, and maintaining relationships with vendors and customers. Informing every decision was Lesser's commitment to Zen practice. As an ordained Zen priest, he has practiced and studied Zen for thirty years. In Z.B.A. he follows the great spiritual tradition of teaching stories to beautifully describe the delicate path of living a working life as a spiritual practice. .Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

Overall, if you want to make your work life a bit more spiritual, or just be more mindful in your daily life, this is a good book for you. A strength of the book are the questions for daily practice at the end of each chapter as they give you something to reflect and work from, thus helping to make the practice more practical and immediate. This is one I recommend. ( )
