Marketplace Spirituality - from secular source
The company is a community, not a corporation, a system for being, not merely a system for production and profit
The new image of the manager is that of a spiritual elder
Employees are members of the body working interdependently for the common good
While mission statements, visions, goals and values will continue to push a company, a “Higher Purpose” (parallel to an external spiritual Power) will pull a company forward
The corporation is an equipping (learning) organization that provides an environment for every-member service (ministry) so each person will become more human, more creative, and more integrated with the Higher Purpose
From “New Traditions in Business: Spirit and Leadership in the Twenty-First Century” edited by John Renesch
Christians, when people are giving spiritual direction everywhere, where is your standpoint on marketplace spirituality?
