I went to the York St John's Business School Annual Lecture last week. Both speakers were very good, but I was particularly struck by Roger Steare (who was the reason for my going at all).
I had been intrigued and impressed by his book Ethicability, and his work as a corporate philosopher. On this occasion he was talking about the Power of Love in Business.
His essential thesis was that if we leave our emotional self at home when we go to work, we lack integrity - in its meaning as wholeness - and that lack of integrity is costly for ourselves, our colleagues, our organisations and the world.
This was explored in some depth and from a number of perspectives: if I understood correctly, we were being taken through his new book: the Power of Love. On the basis of the lecture, it should be well worth reading.
