Book excerpt: Offers ancient solutions to today's problems and provides new perspectives on timeless troubles. For people seeking to bring spiritual values to work or seeking to discover new beliefs and values through their work. Coauthored by Buddhist scholar Franz Metcalf and workplace expert BJ Gallagher. Buddhism has for thousands of years provided a spiritual foundation for the daily lives of millions of people around the world. But does Buddhism have anything to offer us - Buddhists and non-Buddhists alike - in today's world of work? Metcalf and Gallagher think it does. Spiritual wisdom, Western or Eastern, inspires and instructs us in living a good life. And that's just as true at work as at home. Buddha mind - a source of calm, compassion, and insight - exists within each of us, not just the historical Buddha. Being Buddha at Work shows how to embody that mind in the stress and clamor of the workplace - how to tap into the Buddha consciousness so we can relieve daily tensions and greet challenges with awareness, equanimity, and good humor. The book is divided into three sections. The first, ''Becoming a Mindful Worker,'' covers Buddha's wisdom for our own work; the second, ''Cultivating Mindful Work Relationships,'' focuses on how to work with other people; the third, ''Creating a Mindful Workplace,'' deals with broader organizational topics. There is wisdom here for everyone - from frontline workers and team members, to supervisors and managers, to top executives and organizational leaders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The very idea that the teachings can be mastered will arouse controversy within Buddhist circles. Even so, Ingram insists that enlightenment is an attainable goal, once our fanciful notions of it are stripped away, and we have learned to use meditation as a method for examining reality rather than an opportunity to wallow in self-absorbed mind-noise. Ingram sets out concisely the difference between concentration-based and insight (vipassana) meditation; he provides example practices; and most importantly he presents detailed maps of the states of mind we are likely to encounter, and the stages we must negotiate as we move through clearly-defined cycles of insight. Its easy to feel overawed, at first, by Ingram's assurance and ease in the higher levels of consciousness, but consistently he writes as a down-to-earth and compassionate guide, and to the practitioner willing to commit themselves this is a glittering gift of a book.In this new edition of the bestselling book, the author rearranges, revises and expands upon the original material, as well as adding new sections that bring further clarity to his ideas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This classic pioneering book provides keen insight into workplace diversity. With new tips, tools, and strategies for peacocks and penguins alike, your organization will flourish and take flight! Through the story of Perry the Peacock and his fine feathered friends, authors BJ Gallagher and Warren H. Schmidt bring to life the challenges of birds of different feathers who struggle to be successful in the conformity-minded Land of Penguins. Their travails illuminate the challenges of creating a pluralistic corporate culture in which the talent, energy, and commitment of all employees are fully engaged. People who have new ideas that differ from business as usual are often ignored or criticized for the very thing that makes them valuable: their originality and creativity. This unique book helps organizations break out of "penguin thinking” in order to tap into and leverage the creativity of diversity. Learn how to cultivate an organizational culture in which new ideas can flourish and innovation can take flight.

Book excerpt: Lama Zopa Rinpoche is one of the most remarkable Buddhist teachers alive, and How to be Happy represents him at his most engaging and most inspiring, and packaged in a value-priced gift book. Here, Lama Zopa helps us find our Good Heart, the heart that can easily rejoice in the happiness of others; he also gives us wonderful advice in transforming problems into happiness, and even in finding compassion for our "enemies"-those people, thoughts, and situations in daily life we find so troublesome and unpleasant. The books ends with three wonderfully rich and evocative guided meditations that help us vividly see that the more we give away the more happiness we find always in this moment right here. Anyone looking for advice on how to be happy-truly, meaningfully happy-will find Lama Zopa Rinpoche to be a trustworthy and skilful guide. He is a tireless teacher of methods that work for us when all is well and also when life's troubles, big and small, seem unmanageable. As Spiritual Director of a thriving network of Buddhist centres, study groups, and projects throughout the world, his advice is sought by countless thousands of individuals the world over. He has an unending commitment to help any and all of us to transform every moment and every challenge of our lives into an opportunity for realizing the happiness that we are meant to have. You won't need an understanding of Buddhism to read and learn from How to be Happy. All you'll need is a mind that seeks joy, and in turn wishes to share it with the people around you.
