You can't understand humanistic business management unless you understand what humanism is. This book provides a short introduction to the philosophy of humanism and discusses how and why it is being applied to business and why it is so effective when you do so. Humanism helps us prioritize human value as important. It supports positive interpersonal relationships and collaborative and respectful decision-making. Since all businesses are in the business of solving problems, good problem solving is essential to good business.
Humanism has already transformed many other disciplines including psychology, medicine, nursing, and more. Additionally, humanism is foundational to the practice of human resources, without which businesses cannot operate. It is important for business managers to understand the philosophy fully so they can understand how to not only manage people more effectively, but how to operate their businesses in a way that helps the communities in which they operate. This book will provide the primer they need to create more effective and ethical businesses.
Professional Reviews
Very clear
Just bought the book and started reading it. I can see how your writing is easily understood by people of many ages and educational levels. The book is very clear and not full of academic rhetoric. - Dr. Marty Shoemaker
Deceptively Simple
I just finished reading your new book, Applied Humanism. I loved its clarity and straightforwardness. In many ways the writing is deceptively simple: the concepts and their applications are universal in appeal yet subtle in their implications for living and working in today’s world. - Chris Lazlo

Reviews for "Applied Humanism: How to Create More Effective and Ethical Businesses"
I am all for more ethical business practice. I won't have time to read your book, but my experience with organizations in the last years that I was involved with them was that the superiors tended to use methods they found by reading Machiavelli. It is sad when power is so badly abused that it cuts into an organization's ability to function and do its best.
