Something is wrong in corporate world. People are talking about discontentment, lack of diligence and trust, peer sabotage, and diminishing returns. Yet most leaders don't know how to fix their organizations. Maria Gamb's message in Healing the Corporate World is that universal spiritual principles are the seed solution for what ails us. She shows why they are both necessary and practical if we intend to restore companies to full profitability, integrity, and higher functioning. Collaboration is now the rule for business success, rather than the exception. The days of "getting yours" are over. Research has documented that strength-based management is most effective; the smartest, most visionary leaders are actively engaged in learning how to build harmonious and diverse teams. Through her direct, no-nonsense approach to management, Maria Gamb, a longtime Fortune 500 executive within the retail fashion industry, uses her street smarts and universal principles to bring people together to challenge the competitive norm. She empowers readers to be champions for positive change. Gamb assures her readers that we all have the potential to be "change agents." It doesn't matter if you are the CEO, a department head, or a team leader. Anyone-from whatever seat he or she occupies on the team-can initiate change. Gamb maintains change, always starts with the mindsets and actions of the individual. This means that if you're pointing your finger at someone and issuing a complaint, you've basically got to shut your mouth and turn that finger around. Look inside yourself and make the required change there first. Written with managers in mind, because of their status and influence, Healing the Corporate World introduces an alternative model for conducting business. It's a survey of an approach that is more sustainable in individual organizations than the paradigm that so recently failed us on a massive scale. Now, a chance exists to shift this fear-based pattern within our society.

In Maria Gamb's Healing the Corporate World, the author talks about making a "value stand" before you can move forward. If beliefs contradict core values, progress is going to be painful and unsteady. When beliefs, actions, and values are aligned, you get the kind of business that is meaningful and productive... and leads to real gains. Her four-season model of business cycles--and the human cycles that underlie them--is helpful in orienting to where you are and the task that must be accomplished. Each season inevitably has a task. Now that we are offically post-Recession, I believe the value stand is on the table for most businesses. We're going to grow, but let's grow our economy so that it is no longer hollow!

There seems to be a self-destructive, unspoken code in the corporate world that you should never reveal your pain or fears to others. The honest and practical models in Maria Gamb's book Healing the Corporate World can help corporates find the very things for which they have been secretly wishing, but never had the courage to ask.
