Customer Reviews

5 years later, still unbeatable

I bought this book 5 years ago and since then I bought and read plenty of similar. But this one really presents, in a plain and practical language, all the subjects (and problems) I meet in my daily work!

A must read for Covey fans!

While Covey calls it the "gap", Parikh expands this concept with "centering". One of the top five self development books I have read. Parikh has you look at life from an eastern perspective, but with a western utility.Highly recommended!

East and west business culture and education comes together

Never read a book with practical knowledge from east and west. Old knowledge in a serious new age style. For highermanagement a nice combination of insight of mind, body and emotions. A lot of practical models and systeems that you can use the next day in your organisation. Full of figures and cartoons. Very pleasand to read. I use this book as a gift in my excecutive coaching.
