Peter Koestenbaum and Peter Block offer you a new perspective for viewing the workplace through the lens of philosophy so that you may have a better understanding of how to reclaim your freedom and accountability and encourage the same in others. They provide a radical new approach to your work-a-day life that will bring true meaning and power to your work. Freedom and Accountability at Work offers you the information you need to: * Gain strength and meaning by transforming your thinking on how you view anxiety, doubt, death, and guilt * Find new ways to bring spiritual and ethical values into your workplace * Engage in profound change that will help you overcome cynicism that comes from superficial change * Replace your loss of organizational loyalty and safety with a sense of freedom and accountability "Both Koestenbaum and Block are such passionate men who bring together what we all seek in our work life-meaning, insight, and humanness. Bless them for this book." -Joyce DeShano, board chair, Ascension Health
