Doing good works The bible for ordinary people building extraordinary companies

E-book432 pagina’sEngels
In ‘Doing good works', Nick van Langendonck describes his journey of discovery from corporate performance pressure to meaningful work, with the Bible as his unexpected guide.In today's corporate world, the persistent myth prevails that fierce competition leads to the best results. The survival-of-the-fittest mindset is so deeply ingrained in us that we see colleagues as rivals, consider the overachieving boss as the most successful, and even accept immorality when it serves our own interests. This fuels workplace distrust, plummets motivation, and literally makes people ill. Conflict, absenteeism, burnout, and depression have reached unprecedented levels. This perspective is the opposite of what's needed in our global, technology-driven economy. To ensure prosperity and well-being in today's turbulent world, we need each other more than ever. How can we rediscover connection and meaning in business? How can we reconcile humanity with achieving results? How can we maximize individual responsibility for a shared goal? Are doing good and financial success opposites, or can they strengthen each other? Nick Van Langendonck sought answers to these questions. To understand his own unease after a personal and professional low point, he traveled through Europe, America, India, and the Middle East. Unique encounters led to many new insights, but to his surprise, he found ultimate wisdom in the world's oldest book, casually forgotten at the bottom of his wife's old school bag... Dive into Biblical myths with him and discover a provocative book that seamlessly intertwines management, philosophy, psychology, and history into a compelling call for a global grassroots revolution in the business world. Nick Van Langendonck advises international and local companies at critical moments of transformation. He earned his stripes as the founder of an innovation agency and a partner in a social investment fund. Today, he is the driving force behind the social learning network *Unbossers*, uniting business leaders, managers, employees, workers, and students to build stronger companies based on shared Western cornerstone values. Founded in 2023, the network already boasts more than 40 companies and is rapidly expanding.
