Born out of a decade of discussion between His Holiness the Dalai Lama and international management consultant Laurens van den Muyzenberg, The Leader’s Way is the unique meeting of two worlds: the global business landscape and Buddhism. At first sight, these seem to be an unlikely pairing. After a closer look, however, the best business practices and Buddhist principles in fact have much in common; both are concerned with making rational, holistic decisions and turning them into responsible, effective action. Indeed, the teachings of Buddhism have much to offer business leaders.
The world today faces many challenges: the worst global recession in over seventy-five years, with millions out of jobs and entire economies in a tailspin; billions of people living in poverty; the threat of an environmental meltdown. Even prosperous businesses and leaders feel insecure about the future. A new kind of leadership is needed–one that sees events as they really are and understands the interconnectedness, impermanence, and interdependence of individuals, companies, and the global economic system.

      The Dalai Lama further augments his growing body of best-selling works with this enlightening treatise on leadership and decision making born from ten years of discussion with international management consultant van den Muyzenberg (www.leadersway.org). The steadily paced, conversational narration by actor Feodor Chin and voice-over artist Marc Cashman succeeds in realizing the authors' intention of connecting certain aspects of Buddhist philosophy with those of the capitalist, free-market system of economics. For listeners of all religious faiths and those interested in works connecting Eastern philosophy to Western thinking, e.g., "The Tao of Leadership, The Book of Leadership and Strategy", and "The Way of Leadership".Dale Farris, Groves, TX
