Hlavním cílem knihy je pokus uspořádat svět na pozadí solidních výzkumů mozku, které pocházejí z nedávných let, a to včetně oblasti, které se vědecké pojetí světa vyhýbalo a z velké části dosud vyhýbá, totiž v oblasti duchovní. Nejedná se o knihu vědeckou, ani populárně-vědeckou, ale o pokus pojednat problematiku, které se přísně chápaný svět objektivní reality nedovedl dosud zhostit, a to na základě představ, které mají původ v solidním přírodovědeckém výzkumu.
Was treibt uns an im Leben? Unsere spirituelle Intelligenz! Sie lässt uns Regeln brechen, Neuland erobern und führt uns zur Verwirklichung unserer wahren Berufung. Die britische Physikerin und Management-Beraterin Danah Zohar und der Psychiater Ian Marshall zeigen – basierend auf den neuesten Erkenntnissen der Gehirnforschung und der Quantenphysik –, was uns wirklich bewegt. Es ist unsere spirituelle Intelligenz, die uns fragen lässt, wie wir mit unserem Leben einen Unterschied machen und Zeichen setzen können. Dieses „Spirituelle Kapital“ lässt uns Konventionen hinterfragen und Regeln brechen. Es motiviert uns, unserem inneren Ruf zu folgen und unserem Bedürfnis nach Selbstentfaltung Ausdruck zu verleihen. Und es nährt unser Motiv, dem großen Ganzen zu dienen und über die individuelle Transformation hinaus einen Quantensprung in Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft anzustoßen. Das Buch zeigt, wie sich „Spirituelles Kapital“ entwickeln lässt und wie es über die persönliche Ebene hinaus Unternehmenskulturen transformiert, Innovationsgeist fördert und zu einem neuen Corporate Spirit führt.
In "The Quantum Society" authors Danah Zohar and Ian Marshall offer a compelling vision for transforming society using the insights of quantum physics to illuminate their ideas. Diversity, they suggest, is the creative evolutionary force, and the more diverse the society, the greater the opportunity for transformation and growth. Their theory of cosmic and social evolution allows us to discover the meaning and purpose of society through an appreciation and understanding of pluralistic thinking. The result is an all-embracing social model that celebrates the dynamic unity that is possible when we work together to orchestrate and articulate our interdependence. The quantum society is flexible, evolving, and ambiguous. In short, it reflects the idea of society as a living system. The authors use the language of physics to provide the images and metaphors appropriate for understanding the principles that inform this system, bringing into focus our harmonious place within the natural world.
Examines the supposed ability of people to foretell future events and discusses precognition from the point of view of quantum physics
In The Quantum Self, Danah Zohar argues that the insights of modem physics can illuminate our understanding of everyday life -- our relationships to ourselves, to others, and to the world at large. Guiding us through the strange and fascinating workings of the subatomic realm to create a new model of human consciousness, the author addresses enduring philosophical questions. Does the new physics provide a basis by which our consciousness might continue beyond death? How does the material world (for instance, ugly inner cities) impinge upon our sense of self? Is there a subatomic wellspring from which our creativity, our empathy with others, and our feelings of unity with the inanimate world originate?Most important, Zohar shows how the vitality of the new physics combats the alienation and fragmentation of twentieth-century life, and replaces it with a model of reality in which the universe itself may possess a type of consciousness, of which human consciousness is one expression.
Do you feel as if something is missing from your life? Is there a void? A lack of meaning?
Corporate structures, like the physical and biological structure of the human brain, operate from one of three individually distinct but intricately interrelated systems: mental, emotional, and spiritual. The healthiest organizations, like the healthiest minds, learn to respond and adapt to external stimuli through a well integrated union of all three structures rather than a single, rigid approach. Business models, however, primarily neglect emotional and spiritual components in their operations, placing emphasis instead on efficiency, results, and other qualities readily associated with the mental structure alone. With only one-third of the corporate brain utilized, the remaining two-thirds present a vast reserve of ideas and opportunities for responding creatively to the daily demands of corporate life. Rewiring the Corporate Brain offers a new way to think about, lead, and structure organizations for fundamental transformation. It demonstrates how people must change the thinking behind their thinking - i.e., rewire the structures of the corporate brain - to operate more fully and achieve genuine fundamental organizational change. Written for managers at all levels, Rewiring the Corporate Brain takes its lead from quantum, chaos, and the latest brain sciences to offer practical, accessible, and inspiring alternatives to traditional structures in corporate design, practice, and implementation.
In their new book Danah Zohar and Ian Marshall envisage two scenarios. The first is business as we know it today - all short-term interest, short-term gain, isolationist thinking, with the material bottom line as king. The second envisages a business culture driven by fundamental values and a deep sense of purpose in which wealth is accumulated to generate a decent profit while acting to raise the common good. The emphasis is on 'stake-holder value', where stake-holders include the human race, present and future, and the planet itself. These are the values of Spiritual Capital. The crucial question, which Zohar and Marshall address, is: How we can move from one scenario to the other? They show how we need to consider three types of capital to make the leap. Rational intelligence (IQ) and Emotional Intelligence (EQ) are needed to diagnose the current state, and then the twelve qualities of Spiritual Intelligence (SQ) can be used to bring about the final transformation. The ultimate goal is sustainable capitalism within a framework of a more meaningful working life.
The book introduces Quantum Management Theory as a transformative approach to replace traditional Taylorism, advocating for a revolutionary paradigm in management thinking. It emphasizes the failures of conventional strategies in contemporary business and politics, proposing innovative practices that challenge established norms. Rooted in concepts from quantum physics and complexity science, this model aims to reshape organizational structures and promote sustainable practices across various sectors, including personal lives, companies, and communities.
Wealth We Can Live by [Standard Large Print 16 Pt Edition]
