- "Meaning" has been identified as a megatrend of the 21st Century and is becoming increasingly important both for organizations as they redesign
their impact on customers, employees, and society as a whole, as well as for individuals as they search for the deeper meaning of their
work and everyday lives.
- Our book, Prisoners of Our Thoughts, addresses the need for all of us to unlock the inner mental prisons that limit our thinking,
both in everyday life and on the job. This book also addresses the overall search for meaning and is now available in 12 languages, with more on the way.
A feature-length documentary film, which showcases our work in the area of Meaning, is currently in pre-production.
- The Foreword to Prisoners of Our Thoughts was written by Stephen R. Covey, author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.
- In addition, Prisoners of Our Thoughts will be featured set dressing in a Hollywood movie, "The Heaven Project," to be released in 2008. Stay tuned
for more details!
