Synopsis

The Arc of Awareness explores and captures the essence of a leader's journey of expanding awareness. This book is intended as a guide for students of business leadership in tertiary institutions as well as for practicing leaders in business who want to expand their appreciation of the key issues that confront leaders as they grow and develop. The book's main thesis - developed through a series of questions on awareness - is that by asking themselves these questions, leaders expand their horizons and gain a deeper understanding that enables them to make a contribution towards the creation of humane communities within their organizations and to engage wider societal issues so as to contribute towards the building of humane societies.
