tailieunhanh - The ZEN Approach™ to Project Management Working from your Center to Balance Expectations and Performance

This book is an expression of gratitude for my incredible good for- tune to be immersed in the world of projects while meeting the teachings of the wisdom traditions of Yoga, Taoism, Advaita Vedanta and Buddhism. From these teachings and their application in complex organizations performing complex projects, I am better able to under- stand the essence of the many attempts to express the nature of our shared experience. I wish to thank first my wife Linda, a fellow traveler and the loving mirror who helps me to see myself as I am and as I can be.
