A Powerful Way to Create Meaningful Change

Gold Medal Winner, Business Fable, 2012 Axiom Business Book Awards

A personal leadership fable on applying principles of Zen to work and life choices.

The Shibumi Strategy is a little book about a big breakthrough. It tells the story of a hardworking family man who finds himself in crisis when his company closes. Through his struggle, and guidance from unlikely sources, he learns subtle lessons in the form of "personal zen" principles, coming to understand that it is often the involuntary challenge, the setbacks, that harbor the power to transform. When approached as an opportunity - no easy task when simple survival is the first order of business - unforeseen trials can sometimes result in an altogether new lease on life.

• Shows how "personal leadership" can lead to real (and not always easy) breakthroughs
• Includes key lessons on commitment, preparation, struggle, breakthrough, and transformation
• Is based on Shibumi, a Japanese word without literal definition that describes the height of personal excellence, elegant performance, and effortless effectiveness.

For those struggling with personal breakthroughs, The Shubimi Strategy offers a new way to face work and life challenges for balanced solutions.

A great book

This is a great book for those who are looking to create meaningful change in their life.

Great Story

Great story, fantastically short with some good takeaways that I’ve already started to implement in my work life.

Simple book suited for second graders

Awful and waste of time. Made up stories with many holes. Characters are not from real life, struggles and solutions are overly simplistic
