Throw Out The Old Rule Book! Replace it with Something… Ancient! Sacred Business offers a way out of confusion - confusion of decisions and priorities (what should I do next?) and of purpose (why am I doing all this stuff anyway?). Amidst constant change, we want to live productive, balanced, minimum-stress lives. We want to understand and be understood. Sacred Business finds the solution in ancient wisdom. We need a process of remembering rather than invention. The same is true of organizations. How can we do more with less? How can we create shared purpose and build communal spirit? Sacred Business shows that organizations too can change and grow by understanding and using wisdom from our past. The traditional teachings which underpin all cultures and societies but which have hitherto been ignored by business are in fact highly relevant and practical and already finding their way into the world’s most enlightened companies. Now is your chance to join them.

From the Inside Flap
Sacred Business "Weird, brilliant, amazing, excellent, mellow." The IT Group, IPC Magazines "The project involved ‘waking up’ and empowering what used to be a very sleepy old-fashioned company.

1.0 out of 5 stars
Because of Campbell, The Book Has No Credibility,
By Al Carroll, History Professor (Phoenix) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sacred Business: Resurrecting the Spirit of Work (Paperback)
Firth made the worst possible choice for a collaborator, one who has no credibility whatsoever. Campbell is a member of the "Deer Tribe," a cult led by a red haired Irish racist who poses as American Indian and is preparing for a race war. Keep in mind that is where your money will go if you purchase this book.
