Publisher's summary

Consciousness is the main source of organizational greatness. "Conscious business", explains Fred Kofman, means finding your essential values through your work. A conscious business seeks to promote the intelligent pursuit of happiness in all its stakeholders. It produces sustainable, exceptional performance through the solidarity of its community and the dignity of each member.

In this original author adaptation of his book Conscious Business, Fred Kofman presents breakthrough techniques to help you achieve:

  • Unconditional responsibility: how to become the "main character" of your life
  • Unflinching integrity: how to "succeed beyond success"
  • Authentic communication: how to speak your truth, and elicit others' truths
  • Impeccable commitments: how to coordinate actions with accountability
  • Right leadership: how being, rather than doing, is the ultimate source of excellence

"A conscious business fosters personal fulfillment in the individuals, mutual respect in the community, and success in the organization," says Kofman. Conscious Business is the definitive resource for achieving what really matters in the workplace and beyond.

Latino narrator gave a unique listening experience

Novel listening experience kept me engaged. Took some time to warm up to it but it was like music to my ears as I continued listening.

Hard message - beautiful message

Paradox gives us valuable tension - commitment, and consciousness are “simple” but not easy. This gives some guidelines to making this happen in your life.

Should be on every employees read list

Great speaker, valuable content

The author/speaker executes with an interesting, conversational, and almost personal delivery. The content is solid and helped me remember where to keep my focus throughout various interactions and stages of my career. I highly recommend this book.

Awesome Read - True to the core

Makes so much practical sense and we just do not connect the dots when it can be so easy. I honestly believe it is that learned behavior from our youth, our parents and poor authority examples that gets in the way most of the time.

Genuinely, the best book I've ever read.

This isn't another self-help book. It is a cure to the anxiety that we all face as we live and work in this world. Thank you, Fred, for taking the time to write and narrate this incredible gift to the world!

Side note: you have an incredible narrator voice!

This book is great for people facing difficult

This book is great for people facing difficult conversations! I listened to this book from beginning to end and I will change the way I do business with people in regards to communication. The author goes through being conscious while taking with people, groups and our families. They go through all the little pitbulls which causes issues in conversations with people. By not paying attention to what we're telling people we inadvertently set the wrong standard or example. Listening to this book it is clear why I ask so many questions as well as why I make sure I could understand something before agreeing to it. Listen to this book once, then again and your life through communication will change dramatically! This is also a great book I would say goes along with the book Difficult Conversations which I've heard about, but haven't read yet!
