Lack of employee engagement is a huge problem for businesses around the world today. Many employees are frequently absent while others are present in body only. How can they rediscover their passion and re-engage to find meaning in their work? According to author Michael Rock, who is an expert in a range of disciplines related to the workplace, the sixth-century Rule of St. Benedict has much to teach us about his complex modern reality. Building on ideas and approaches from the world of emotional intelligence, Rock explores the role of emotions, which he believes lie at the heart of disengagement, For him, this pervasive issues is more than a business or emotional problem: it's a spiritual one. The wisdom of St. Benedict embraces work, life and human emotions; he saw the value of work but especially the value of the worker. As you delve into the writings and teachings of Benedict prepare to see the workplace as worthplace, a place where you can find meaning, wholeness and connectedness-a bridge to the spiritual.
