Conscious Business
Presents techniques for organizational success that involve embracing such qualities as integrity, authenticity, accountability, and honesty.
The Meaning Revolution
'One of the most extraordinary thinkers on leadership and management I have ever encountered' - Sheryl Sandberg Forget the standard practices of leadership taught in business school -- all about compensation, command and control. This is a new model for how to inspire -- through purpose, principle and people. The Meaning Revolution is Fred Kofman's call to arms for anyone who has ever felt unengaged at work and offers actionable advice for how we can all find more meaning and dignity whatever we do. Bringing together economics and conflict resolution, counselling and mindfulness, Kofman explains how our most deep-seated anxiety is that we are wasting our lives. The things that we think matter -- salaries and job titles -- actually only account for 15% of our motivation at work. The other 85% is about how we belong, feeling we make a difference, that we serve a purpose larger than ourselves. Transformative leadership is about helping employees feel connected to a great mission or purpose, and discovering the 'immortality project' at the core of your business.

When disagreements arise in the office, how do we express ourselves honestly without jeopardizing our career, our work relationships, or our own integrity? And how do we support the same openness in others? These are the critical questions you will explore in Authentic Communication: Transforming Difficult Conversations in the Workplace. Drawing on his many years consulting with thousands of people on every organizational level, Fred Kofman shares a wealth of skills to help us “express and elicit all perspectives in the spirit of mutual learning.”

Summary of Fred Kofman's The Meaning Revolution
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I asked the managers to introduce themselves, and when they did, I challenged them to a wager: if they didn’t know what their job was, they would have to bet a hundred dollars that they didn’t know. Most of them raised their hands. #2 The primary job of each and every member of the team is to help the team win. The primary job of a defensive player is to help the team win. The primary job of an offensive player is to help the team win. #3 The customer retention representative struggled with the sound clip of his conversation with Ryan Block. He was trying to do his job, which was to help his company be better, but he ended up doing a great disservice to Comcast through a public relations fiasco. #4 Leadership is the process of eliciting the internal commitment of others to accomplish a mission in alignment with the group’s values. Leadership is about getting what can’t be taken, and deserving what is freely given.
