內容簡介
In The Heart of Business Liz Mohn describes her experiences asa woman and an entrepreneur at Bertelsmann, Europe’s largest mediacorporation, in a powerful call to action for organizations ofevery size and purpose to adapt to the evolving criteria of successin the twenty-first century. With the new millennium being shapedby the forces of internationalization and globalization, Mohn asksan important question: Will humane values take their rightful andnecessary place as a vital factor in the equations that measureachievement and prosperity in the world we will hand over to ourchildren and grandchildren?
Making a plea for a new paradigm of business and personalachievement that combines material rewards with those of friendshipand social consciousness, Mohn writes passionately and eloquentlyabout her beliefs as a woman, a philanthropist, and a corporateleader. At their heart is a deep concern about frightening trendsin our society: the loss of direction, the increase in bothselfishness and loneliness, the lack of concern for children andthe elderly. In response, says Mohn, we must commit ourselves tosuch principles as the preservation of traditional cultures amidthe pressures of globalization, the ethical education of children,and love rooted in recognition of our common humanity. The distanceLiz Mohn has traveled in her own life mirrors the distance that allof society—from individuals and families to large corporations—musttravel to remain forces for positive change in our new world. InThe Heart of Business Liz Mohn offers an equal measure of hope andan energizing spirit of renewal.
