Awake at Work
Discovering Clarity and Balance in the Midst of Work's Chaos
When we think of work, we often think of drudgery, frustration, and stress. For too many of us,
work is the last place in our lives we expect to experience satisfaction, fulfillment, or spiritual growth. In this
unique book, Michael Carroll—a meditation teacher, executive coach, and corporate director—shares Buddhist wisdom
on how to transform the common hassles and anxieties of the workplace into valuable opportunities for heightened
wisdom and enhanced effectiveness. Carroll shows us how life on the job—no matter what kind of work we do—can
become one of the most engaging and fulfilling areas of our lives.

Creating with Others
The Practice of Imagination in Life, Art, and the Workplace
By Shaun McNiff
Do you believe that life within an organization means death to the creative process? That creativity is the
exclusive province of "artistic types"? Wrong! Shaun McNiff shows how we can all cultivate the special kind of
creative energy that is generated by people working together in groups, whether in the workplace or other
cooperative communities—wherever individuals come together to pursue a common goal through dialogue,
interaction, and teamwork.

How to Create Your Own Career
This book offers a totally new, holistic approach to career development, involving the wisdom of
the unconscious—expressed in dreams, symbols, personal myths, intuitions, and memories—as well as the analytical
skills needed to set goals and plan strategies. It is designed for anyone who has to make important life
decisions—whether in choosing a field, changing careers, trying to get more satisfaction out of work, planning for
retirement, or reentering the job market. Based on the principles of creativity as revealed in the world's creation
myths and in the techniques of artists, poets, and inventors, the book presents a ten-step process of creative
career development.
