Woher kommt ihr Wunsch nach extremen Autoritäten? Wer heute nach Abgrenzung, Härte, neuen Autoritäten und neuen »Wahrheiten« schreit, ist als Kind in seiner Verletzlichkeit allein gelassen worden. Das dadurch beschädigte Vertrauen, so zeigt das Hörbuch, bildet den fruchtbaren Boden für populistische Versprechungen.

In this modern spiritual classic, the Tibetan meditation master Chögyam Trungpa highlights the commonest pitfall to which every aspirant on the spiritual path falls prey: what he calls spiritual materialism. The universal tendency, he shows, is to see spirituality as a process of self-improvement - the impulse to develop and refine the ego when the ego is, by nature, essentially empty. "The problem is that ego can convert anything to its own use," he said, "even spirituality."

But once in a great while a leader makes a truly game-changing decision that shifts not only the strategy of a single company but how everyone does business.

The Art of Letting Go helps you understand why, how, and when you should let someone go so you can move on and never look back.
