Being Human at Work af Richard Strozzi-Heckler (Bog)

Bringing Somatic Intelligence Into Your Professional Life

This anthology of interdisciplinary writings looks at the integration of mind, body, and spirit as it plays out in the workplace—whether in birth coaching, teaching parents, assisting the terminally ill, or working in the military, the classroom, or the corporation. These essays reveal what gets in the way of our humanity in the work world and how to rediscover that humanity. Written by leading professionals in business, education, medicine, technology, finance, psychology, and the military, this collection of essays explores how reconnecting with one’s humanity can result in true leadership in any field.

Praise for Being Human At Work

This book is a rich blend of essays by Strozzi Institute colleagues, who view the body as a subject rather than as an object, the senses as integral to the intellect, and long-term mastery of the self as a universal birthright.

George Leonard, author of Mastery and The Ultimate Athlete

Being Human At Work takes us into the future of learning and human satisfaction. Somatics moves beyond "I think therefore I am," into the intelligence of the psychology of the body and our profound capacity to continue to evolve throughout a lifetime. Strozzi-Heckler makes this whole- systems methodology accessible across leadership, business, psychotherapy, the military, medicine, and government.

Staci Haines, author of The Survivor's Guide to Sex, founder, Generation Five, community leadership foundation

Being Human At Work immerses the reader deeply into the traps and cost of our disconnection from ourselves and each other in our work world, then shows us passageways to reconnection and satisfaction. It is a book of wisdom, presented with passionate insight.

Artemis Joukowsky III, venture capitalist, author of Raising the Bar

Beware of picking this book up. The authors' expertise in catalyzing transformational change in their professions will challenge each of us to step up to the plate to lead from our authentic core to meet challenges with steadfastness, dignity, and grace.

Sartaj Alag, president, Capital One Canada

Being Human at Work shows that human accomplishment emanates from the wisdom of our body, soul, spirit, and mind. When we operate as though it is only from our intellect, we use a fraction of our capacity. This book shows that when we allow people the full expression of their "selves" at work, breakthrough results occur.

Ruth Otte, former president, The Discovery Channel
