Book Description

September 1, 2009
Readable in fifty-eight minutes: Traditional Eastern wisdom and real-life business experience come together in this brief and practical guide, which offers a step-by-step plan that will help readers adopt a more successful way of working and living.

KARMIC MANAGEMENT is a little book with a revolutionary message. It turns traditional business mentality on its head by stating simply that helping others become successful—suppliers, customers, even competitors—is the real key to success in life as well as in business.

Drawing from their own entrepreneurial experiences, the authors explain how, in eight basics steps that take less than one hour in total, readers can learn to apply KARMIC MANAGEMENT to meet goals, both personal and professional. Each lesson opens with a quotation from a Buddhist text and explains how it applies to life and work in the twenty-first century. The authors show readers how to identify the things that aren’t working for them, discover their most valuable assets, and use their new insights to improve the lives of others. To-do lists throughout the book provide practical tools and exercises, and real-life examples highlight the power of KARMIC MANAGEMENT to make dreams come true.

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Billed as the sequel to the best-selling The Diamond Cutter, this slim volume lays out its Eight Rules of Karmic Management, a business philosophy predicated upon helping karmic business partners—co-workers, customers and suppliers, the world—succeed. With brief testimonials from hip-hop entrepreneur Russell Simmons and advertising executive Linda Kaplan Thaler, the guide lays out a mishmash of Eastern religions and such New Age strategies as visualizing future endeavors with a 100% success rate. Much of the book yields more puzzlement than enlightenment: the authors offer unfocused personal anecdotes, and various contradictory statements create further confusion (e.g., an assertion that the method always works is followed by the qualifying If it works, then you have a friend for life in KM). Also befuddling (and troubling) in a treatise espousing altruism toward competitors is praise for retailing giant Wal-Mart, whose evisceration tactics against rivals are widely documented. (Sept. 1)

This booklet breaks down deep concepts that can be understood and used on a daily basis. I wish that I had found this material years ago. That would have save me a lot of money and time. Thanks.

I read this book in an hour, and followed all the directions laid out in the book. I re-read the book again, and have continued to follow the advices. My business and financial situation have improved immensely, not to mention so have my personal relationships just by using the principles and examples laid out in this book. I am in the process of reading the author's other book the Diamond Cutter. I loved this book and now give it as gifts to my other entrepreneur or friends looking to change their life. I feel that these books should be read and then re-read, so much wisdom in here!

4.0 out of 5 stars Can you measure cause and effect?
Karma does work just not in a way that can be scientifically measured. Cause and effect leaves no footprints. It is not a religion although it does involve the soul.
