Buddha in a Business Suit, by Marc Fine, is a 102 page, beautifully illustrated eBook about the Art of Heartful Management.
How many people do you know (perhaps this includes someone sitting in your seat right now!) who have done very well in their careers, and yet don’t quite feel content, are missing a deep sense of satisfaction and purpose? Many people who have “made it” talk about their student days as being the happiest times of their lives. And this was at a point when they had little money and few material possessions.
I'm not suggesting that we all go back to living in poverty, but I am proposing that we look at a broader definition of success, and explore ways to bring our lives into balance. And this, of course, includes our work lives.
Buddha in a Business Suit goes beyond the “art of management” to the “heart of management” and shows you how to be a Heartful Manager -- a powerful, effective person who gets things done in a skillful and compassionate manner while providing service to self, community, and the environment.
Although it draws from the deep well of Eastern spiritual teachings, this book is not about becoming a Buddhist. It offers simple and profound advice that will serve you regardless of your background or spiritual outlook, and shows you how to do whatever it is you’re doing better -- while living in a state of contentment and happiness.
Here’s a quick look at of some of the Buddhist concepts you’ll learn about in this book
1. Dharma A Spiritual Road Trip with the Buddha
2. The Middle Path Balance in the Pursuit of Moderation
3. Compassion The Benefits of Selfish Altruism
4. Wisdom Being With ‘What Is’
Buddha in a Business Suit The Art of Heartful Management edition by Marc Fine Eduardo Gutekunst Religion Spirituality eBooks
I really liked this book and it is good to be reminded that unless you work on compassion and patience you will not get better at it. The only way to become more compassionate is to practice compassion. As a manager, and CEO I realized that most of my problems are self-created, and just stepping away from the "monkey mind" allows one to have a deeper appreciation of the issues the company is facing. Thank you Marc for putting this book out to the world.Product details

Buddha in a Business Suit The Art of Heartful Management edition by Marc Fine Eduardo Gutekunst Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
Just finished reading.... loved it! Insightful, often amusing, anecdotes give food for thought. I could draw many parallels to my own life's experiences and relate accordingly. For me, this was also a "beginner's guide" to some Buddhist history and concepts; including shall we say, a seemingly "irreverent" approach to certain issues - resulting in positive endings and happiness.
I will be reading this again & again.
This book was exactly what I needed to hear to remind me of many of the Buddhist principles that I need to pay better attention to. It's a great guide for spiritual living, for personal life as well as business. I like the way Marc explains Buddhist principles in every day terms, very simply and easy to apply to one's life. It's great food for thought. Rules to live by.
Do you want to save hundreds of hours studying Buddhism because, even though you know the information would be valuable in running your business, you are running a business and don't have the time? It is obvious that Marc Fine has spent the time, both in studying Buddhist teachings and as a sought after business consultant. His book synthesizes the principles of Buddhism in the context of managing people in business, with helpful lessons, tips and exercises for following through with business relationships.
This information can be just as valuable for readers looking for ways to bring more happiness into their homes. Substitute manager for parent, staff for children and business for family. I look forward to being able to read this wise and valuable book on paper.
For many centuries the country of Tibet, encompassing the Himalayan mountains, was shrouded in mystery and cut off from the outside world. Then in 1950 the Chinese invaded Tibet, cutting a swathe of destruction, killing large numbers of Tibetans and imprisoning many others. Among those who escaped was the Dalai Lama, the spiritual leader of Tibet. And so, out of this human tragedy emerged some good, with the West learning about the Tibetan approach to life.
In 1989 Marc Fine travelled to India where he met the Dalai Lama who advised him “take back what you’ve found useful, and leave the rest behind.” Marc followed that advice and the result is Buddha in a Business Suit The Art of Heartful Management, a beautifully illustrated eBook. The book is not about becoming a Buddhist but it does draw on the profound spiritual teachings of the East to offer persuasive advice on how to run a better business.
Some of the concepts that are explored include Dharma, a spiritual road trip with the Buddha; The Middle Path, balance in the pursuit of moderation; Compassion, the benefits of selfish altruism; and Wisdom, being with ‘what is.’ Marc has arranged each of the 20 chapters in a consistent format. First, Tales from Tibet (and Beyond) tells an illuminating story, and this is followed by a brief description of Buddhist thought and practice as applied to business. Finally, there is a guide for action, Lotus Lessons, that shows how the principles of Heartful Management can be applied.
One of the most insightful chapters is about patience, in which Buddha is seen to practise austerity without the expected results, so he resolves not to arise from the shade of a tree until he has attained enlightenment. As Marc says, “Even the Dalai Lama admits that after years of meditation and study, patience is still the most difficult attribute to master. There can be no clarity when your mind is in turmoil.”
Marc Fine is a thirty-year veteran of the ultrasound industry in the USA. In the 1980s he set about developing the Teknar Proscan, a medical device for the early detection and treatment of prostate cancer. People told him that it couldn’t be done, that the technology was far too complex, but he proved them wrong. His marketing forecast projected sales of a million dollars in the first year and they actually reached that target in one month! And this was accomplished with Heartful Management.
I really liked this book and it is good to be reminded that unless you work on compassion and patience you will not get better at it. The only way to become more compassionate is to practice compassion. As a manager, and CEO I realized that most of my problems are self-created, and just stepping away from the "monkey mind" allows one to have a deeper appreciation of the issues the company is facing. Thank you Marc for putting this book out to the world.
