Wisdom at Work
Description: An online conversation on the current transformation of consciousness and the integration of spirituality in the workplace. Dedicated to an open dialogue on the personal and organizational issues of integrating spirituality at work. The list posts moderator Let Davidson's column, "Wisdom at Work," which appears regularly in The Connection, the quarterly newsletter of Renaissance Business Associates. In the discussions Let draws on his sixteen years' professional experience as a trainer and consultant applying spiritual principles and techniques to the workplace, based on a quarter century of personal study and practice in the wisdom traditions of both east and west.

As Carl Jung reminded us about our western rationalist, materialist society, "the greatest taboo is not homosexuality, it is spirituality." It is no accident that a generation of people are coming out of the closet, no longer willing to keep their deepest truth locked up and separated from our work and organizations.
