Leadership is all about being, not doing.
Joseph Jaworski has written "the" book on leadership for the 1990's. Not unlike Robert Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Jaworski's Synchronicity: The Inner Path of Leadership serves up a tale of personal discovery of such magnitude as to speak to the very heart and soul of the reader. Drawing heavily from Robert Greenleaf's Servant Leadership, Jaworski describes in compelling form the essential character of leadership founded on servant as leader. Reading Jaworski is like reading a modern-day Paul: his message that we can control our future by allowing life to unfold through us -- not despite us -- is comforting in this era when we all seem to be cascading toward a destiny over which we have little or no control. Read this book. Accept its invitation to initiate your own journey of self-discovery and enlightenment.

Synchronicity: The Inner Path of Leadership
Ideas of Grandiosity.
I would suggest that the individuals mentioned in this book be interviewed for their version of the experiences. Then determine if this book has taken some "fictional" license. But wouldn't we all like to paint a fantastic autobiographical picture of ourselves especially if our lineage had someone truly outstanding in it.

Misleading title...
This book should carry the title "Autobiography of Joe Jaworski".
I bought the book because I wanted to know more about Jung's Synchronicity, it is not... I give it 2 stars as a book on synchronicity (for good articles check out the Namaste newsletters by Deepak Chopra) and 4 as a autobiography, that's why the 3 stars on average (no rocket science here).
The conversations with David Bohm are the parts I liked in particular. The rest is the story of a remarkable and impressive career. Similar Products
