About the Author:

Denis Waitley, author of the New York Times best-seller Seeds of Greatness, has studied and counseled leaders in every field from top executives of Fortune 500 companies to Olympic champions.

From Publishers Weekly:

Comparing the relentless spread of corporate downsizing with a concept the ancient Greeks labeled chaos, Waitley (Empires of the Mind) points out that in the 1960s, scientists began determining that chaos is a natural phenomenon that can be understood and (within limits) managed. That was the beginning of chaos theory. What does this have to do with downsizing? According to Waitley, it means that since corporations are expected to continue streamlining the work force, we will have to live with that kind of chaos by building flexibility into our career goals. We can, for instance, consider opportunities for self-employment and develop skills that open doors to a variety of opportunities. With risk now an integral part of most jobs, the author urges workers to exploit it for opportunity. Begin, Waitley says, with a search for self-definition and let the inner person lead. These inspirational suggestions are for those who believe that the future has arrived too soon. Includes a 21-day "action plan."
