When Work Means Meaning - Existential Dimensions. Organizations and Leadership.


Finally, a book about the existential questions of life with respect to the working life. (Full page without frames ...)

 

The lines between ”work” and ”life” are becoming more and more blurred.  Do we live to work or work to live?

 

*  Our contacts with other adults happen at work

*  Our ideals take shape at work

*  We find meaning in our lives at work

 

The job of the future will be complex and will demand that people use both head and heart. When core qualifications are no longer sufficient, competent, authentic people with meaning in their lives - and existential leadership will be a must for high standards and excellence.

"If you have your why? for life, then you can get along with almost any how?," wrote the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche back in 1888. In a complex world, it is still highly significant to know your why? in life.

And it is critical that a person can "[…] simultaneously [to] be out on 70,000 fathoms of water and yet be joyful." (Søren Kierkegaard, 1845).
