From Diversity to Unity

The global workplace offers fertile ground to establish a new blueprint for change in human relationships. Based on unity and borrowing from the field of quantum physics, this approach to diversity represents a complete paradigm shift in how to build meaningful relationships across differences. Developing these skills is what we call Creating the Energy of Connection. This book gives individuals the tools to create new patterns within themselves thereby setting the stage for a new set of dynamics to emerge in their relationships with others. By practicing any of the powerful Key Tasks provided in each chapter, individuals discover within themselves the energy to generate open mindedness and authenticity while learning to go beyond their past conditioning in connecting with others. Building on principles of unity and connectedness, this book gives individuals the skills to let go of limiting ego-based beliefs, and create relationships that foster trust, provide opportunities for new levels of collaboration, and sustain creativity and positive energy in the workplace. This approach provides individuals and organizations with specific tools for creating respectful work environments. By entering into diversity with the skills to truly exchange meaning with someone very different from ourselves, we create opportunities for real performance improvements while we sow seeds of hope and growth for our planet.
