Spirit at Work

I came across a review of a book, Spiritual Enterprise: Building Your Business In the Spirit of Service, by Lawrence Miller, which talks about the spiritual principles that lie behind all successful business organizations.

Specifically, Miller links the following principles with successful corporate practices:

• honesty and trustworthiness
• the spirit of service
• justice
• consultation
• unity
• moderation
• world citizenship
• universal education

“Honesty and trustworthiness are not only the foundation of virtue but of economic activity as well,” Miller writes, outlining how honesty and trust are essential for wealth creation, innovation and leadership.

The book also serves to educate readers on Baha’i spiritual, social and economic principles, and how the teachings of the Baha’i faith are being rediscovered in the corporate world.

  1. I enjoyed your post. If you are not a member of the International Center for Spirit at Work (www.spiritatwork.org), you should consider this. I interview authors and practitioners monthly as do others for their teleconference series. I think you would enjoy this. Becoming a member helps to support this work. Jann Freed
