The Map Of Meaningful Work : A Guide To Sustaining Our Humanity In The World Of Work
Paperback Edition: 2
This book introduces a 'Map of Meaning' called the Holistic Development Model, which provides a clear, simple and profound framework of the dimensions and process of living and working meaningfully.The Map is based on over 15 years' research into the insights and practice of ordinary people. Incorporating the ideas of philosophers, psychologists and sociologists, this book describes how ordinary human beings wrestle with, and find answers to, questions such as, 'What gives my life and work meaning?', 'How can I balance inspiration and reality so as to maintain positive momentum?' and 'How do we integrate meaningfulness into our workplaces?'. Innate human knowledge is captured in a practical model that makes understanding and working with issues of meaning clear and accessible to everyone. At an individual level this book helps people to define and stay in contact with what is most important to them as they grapple with the real problems of daily life and suggests how they can stay in charge of keeping the human search for meaning alive, especially in the face of the challenges that exist in organisational life. The authors recognise that in the current economic context a simple map of meaning is essential, precisely because organisational life has become so intensely directed towards a singular economic goal. They argue that it is vital that people have a simple and powerful way to reclaim the significance of meaning in their working lives.
