Meditating Management asks many questions yet does not necessarily pursue to give any answers, certainly not standard answers. Rather, it suggests that those of us looking to see “one step further” should be more than ready to start a journey leading to a better perspective on our work and lives; a better view of the true sense and meaning of what we do and who we are. It is a timely book, because in our turbulent times, we all need solid truths that anchor us to the everlasting importance of values and principles, not only in our professional careers, but in our personal development as human beings too.
