Healing the Corporate World: How Value-based Leadership Transforms Business from the Inside out Maria Gamb

Something is wrong in corporate world. People are talking about discontentment, lack of diligence and trust, peer sabotage, and diminishing returns. Yet most leaders don't know how to fix their organizations. Maria Gamb's message in Healing the Corporate World is that universal spiritual principles are the seed solution for what ails us. She shows why they are both necessary and practical if we intend to restore companies to full profitability, integrity, and higher functioning. Collaboration is now the rule for business success, rather than the exception. The days of "getting yours" are over. Research has documented that strength-based management is most effective; the smartest, most visionary leaders are actively engaged in learning how to build harmonious and diverse teams. Through her direct, no-nonsense approach to management, Maria Gamb, a longtime Fortune 500 executive within the retail fashion industry, uses her street smarts and universal principles to bring people together to challenge the competitive norm. She empowers readers to be champions for positive change. Gamb assures her readers that we all have the potential to be "change agents." It doesn't matter if you are the CEO, a department head, or a team leader. Anyone-from whatever seat he or she occupies on the team-can initiate change. Gamb maintains change, always starts with the mindsets and actions of the individual. This means that if you're pointing your finger at someone and issuing a complaint, you've basically got to shut your mouth and turn that finger around. Look inside yourself and make the required change there first. Written with managers in mind, because of their status and influence, Healing the Corporate World introduces an alternative model for conducting business. It's a survey of an approach that is more sustainable in individual organizations than the paradigm that so recently failed us on a massive scale. Now, a chance exists to shift this fear-based pattern within our society.
