COMMENDATIONS – THE SPIRIT AT WORK PHENOMENON  Alan Harpham, Vice-Chair of MODEM, consultant in project management and leading UK member of Spirit in Business  – “I think this is a wonderful book that sets out incredibly succinctly and in simple, easy to read language the essence of the spirit at work phenomenon. It is incredibly well-founded, with great depth and substance, and very well researched.” Georgeanne Lamont, Author of The Spirited Business and managing partner of SpiritWorks Ltd. – “Brilliant! The book has academic clarity and yet warmth of heart; it is inspirational and I shall use it and draw on it frequently.” John Renesch, Author and international keynote speaker – “The Spirit at Work Phenomenon is the most comprehensive overview of the movement I’ve seen. And, it’s rich in resources! It’s a ‘must read’ for anyone who is longing for more fulfillment from their work. Buy extra copies and pass them on to everyone you know who fits the profile.” Pat Sullivan, Author of Work with Meaning, Work with Joy: Bringing Your Spirit to Any Job – ‘Of the several hundred books in my spirit at work library, this one quickly went into the top ten. Whether you are a long-time student of the spirit at work movement or are just discovering why so many people want to bring spirit to work, this is the book for you. Compelling stories, solid research from many fields and faiths, combined with the authors’ experience make for both a first-class read and reference material. This book is specially recommended for clergy, OT and HR managers, therapists, job counselors and anyone else who works with – or cares about – people at work.” The Revd Patrick O’Ferrall, OBE, Former Chairman of Lloyd’s Register of Shipping – “I strongly recommend this book to senior directors and managers who are concerned for the spiritual health of their organisation, as it clearly demonstrates the link between spiritual and economic health. It is illuminated by stories of spirituality at work in different organisations and repays careful study and thought.” The Revd Margaret Hobrough, OBE, Former Principal of Godalming College, UK – “Such a masterly analysis and evaluation of ‘The Spirit at Work Phenomenon’ will simultaneously inform, encourage and provide a handbook for further development of companies, voluntary organizations, the public sector organizations and leaders and managers the length and breadth of the land. But perhaps even more important is its message to all who seek meaning and purpose within their working lives and who want to ‘make a difference’ to the society in which they live. This book goes to the very heart and soul of our everyday experience at work and seeks, like the prophets of old, to chart a new course, to create a new covenant between what people do and who they are once they begin to function with the whole of their being, body, mind and spirit. For me, though perhaps not for all, it is discerning where God is at work in God’s world and seeking to become part of God’s purpose.”
