    First published in 1996. This volume offers a new vision for fulfilment in the workplace. Both corporations and individuals will learn how to re-examine their traditional corporate ideologies and replace them with the human side of the business, a necessity for building healthy work environments. This text defines change as more than applying the latest quick-fix program. Change requires embracing the shadows and a change of heart. A result of 25 year's of leadership and organisational research and experience. This essential reading for organisations who wish to increase morale and productivity, as well as for individuals looking for personal meaning in the workplace.
