Publisher Description
Spiritual and ethical lessons for the workaday world: how to do well—and do good.
How can I find greater satisfaction in my work?
How can I lead my employees through difficult times?
If you get up each morning to go to work, this guide contains the reminder you need to succeed: you can do well and, at the very same time, you can do good.
Rabbi Wayne Dosick gives us tools to solve both the major moral dilemmas and the day-to-day questions of life at work. He offers ten new commandments that can transform our work and work environment into places for accomplishment and satisfaction, honesty and integrity, decency and dignity—and success.
Through stories, real-life business situations, and artfully chosen spiritual texts, The Business Bible reminds us that principles don’t have to be sacrificed for profits, that value means more than net worth, and that spiritual ethics can lead to business excellence.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This intriguing book by the author of The Best Is Yet to Come: Renewing American Judaism adroitly addresses the ethical issues that face U.S. businesses in the wake of the 1980s ``greed is good'' mentality, which led to massive governmental deficits and layoffs by debt-laden companies. Dosick focuses on Biblical concepts because, he states, by bringing these enduring values into the modern marketplace ``the contemporary business world can be transformed into a place where . . . decency and dignity are the everyday guides and goal.'' Dosick's ``ten commandments'' are variations of the traditional teachings of a myriad of religions. His thoughts on treating employees and customers with respect, providing a positive work environment and putting work in the proper perspective are moving, as are his ideas on marketing and employee development. Fortune Book Club, Quality Book Club and Jewish Book Club alternates.
