Comments

Lawrence: The last few chapters were transformational. Not sure where I heard or read something about someone finishing a book and they felt like they experienced a surreal event... then realizing that reading is a solitary adventure.

The part about the four monks thinking one may have been the "Messiah" was kind of funny. Because of the change in them, the atmosphere of the monastery also changed drawing on others who also became moved.

dana: LOVE this book! Powerful and useful. Excellent for coaches and "leader as coach". Powerful bc it focuses on some simple tools and being with the truth. Couple this with his videos on Youtube or LinkedIn and you will learn a lot of powerful skills. Based on simple concepts of truth, honesty, compassion, neutrality. Works on difficult conversations and authentic leadership. This is all about letting go of defenses and practicing a high level way of being in the world then bringing it into the work place and into your life at all levels.

Mathias Rackow: the first 25 pages left me speechless and caught my unconditional attention. Almost each sentence carried what I find to be my truth, just packaged and concluded to a level that I so far have not been capable. Hence its been a leapfrogging book to me. To me it was just a ride on a wave of pure curiosity and inspiration. You wanna be a good manager? This book can become the milestone and breakthrough that will take you to the next level as a human and therefore as a manager.

Good luck to all of you.

Guillermo Esparza: This book not only works for work-related issues, it includes a wide range of situations that we face in our daily lives with the people that surround us. The premise here is that if we were conscious of our actions and thoughts we could have much more enriching relationships.

carlo della schiava: It claim to be a book to help in business, but it speak of life, in a strong incredible manner, that it shocked me.
Of course these book will help you in your business life, but in my opinion, if you read it with open-minded and open-hearted it will help you in everything else.

I wish to give it six stars!!

Ashton Fourie: In a world of competition and hyper competition, Koffman brings us back to the core of humanity and the fundamental connection between being human and doing business.

If you believe intuitively that there should be a clearer connection between basic human values and the actions that connect integrity with success, then Conscious Business will most probably help you to surface and articulate the source of this awareness. Raising it from the semi-conscious to the conscious level enables us to deliberately return to integrity, values, and taking responsibility for our part to play in every situation life and business would present us with.

B. van Dam: This is an excellent piece of real human education. First, I recommend that you get the audio CD.

Often times audio books are read by a hired reader and many times they suffer from over-annunciation and become distracting as they can be stiff or attempt to be excessively perfect in their language. Fred Kofman speaks as if he is talking to you and his accent is so engaging that you find yourself listening intently; it feels like a one to one coaching.

The concepts are straight forward and have real-world application. You will find that you exhibit many of the behaviors he describes and he explains ways to recognize them and overcome natural negative/destructive tendencies. I have listened to the CD three times and each time I learn more and apply it.

The teachings here have had a positive impact and again are real and fee from touchy-feely-airy-fairy self help gibberish. Fred Kofman is the real deal.

Steve: Kofman provided insights into integrity and observations related to effective use of communication and dialogue. For example, in his description of ontological arrogance, something we have all encountered, he brings in self-reflection as the reader distinguishes the personal differences between one's identity and one's opinion. By use of introspection and real-life examples, Kofman opens a window into effective communication and authentic interpersonal relations.

This book would be of tremendous help to people that depend on communication in their lives, both business and personal. The understanding of "why" another communicates is a certain way compounded with how one hears and interprets is a powerful combination in every aspect of life. Being an executive with over 25 years of leadership experience and a current doctoral candidate, I gained tremendous knowledge upon reading Kofman's book. I highly recommend this book to anyone wishing to improve their ability to lead, manage, or collaborate with others!
