The Map of Meaning: A Guide to Sustaining our Humanity in the World of Work (9781906093655): Marjolein Lips-Wiersma, Lani Morris: Books. We have been applying aspects of the Holistic Development Model here in classes in management and leadership at Toi Whakaari New Zealand Drama School over the last four years. Students have found this frame an invaluable tool for orienting themselves in the face of what they see as an insurmountable range of paradoxes presented by our modern world. They ask themselves: how can I effect change ethically and meaningfully when my needs and those of the world, my values and the direction of society seem so at odds? Working with this frame has brought integration and empowerment, clarity and personal commitment to these students. It s great to see it now in its published form. --Christian Penny, Director, Toi Whakaari New Zealand Drama SchoolI read this book and did all the exercises in it. The book contains an indispensable tool to keep us whole. It will save us from burnout; it will save us from cynicism. It s totally non-judgemental. It s like a key that unlocks all that is important to us as human beings. As a consultant working in developed and developing countries, this framework gives me a simple way to profoundly engage with people across cultures. I can see for the first time not only myself but the context in which I live my life. --Kerry McGovern, Public Sector Asset, Governance and Financial Management Specialist, K McGovern & Associates, AustraliaBy providing a well-tested, comprehensive framework and language, this book helps managers to engage in a genuine dialogue on how daily tasks can be a natural expression of what truly matters, beyond profits and growth. Grounded and deep, the authors show us how to integrate inspiration and purpose into the reality of business. --Lenette Schuijt, leadership trainer and author of several books on management and inspiration
