Way
Do you dream of success in life? Do you have the vision to convert your dream into reality? Do you have the skills to achieve your ambition? Having originated from a council estate in the heart of the UK rising to a noted international executive banker after an initial career as a nuclear physicist I know the twists and turns, ups and downs, joys, and sorrows along the way. I attracted great mentors who believed in me, picked me up when I fell, and showed me the way to reach my dreams, developing my own style of successful management in this ever-changing world.If you have the will to reach for your dreams whether running your own business, a club, or any other dream up to executive leadership I hope this book will inspire you with the skills and direction to show you the Way.Noted success is not taught in a classroom. It is a belief in your Dream, your Desire, and your Vision. Only then you will you find the Way to succeed.This book is based on some 35 years of successful executive leadership in one form or another on the international stage with some of the largest banks in the World.Having started my journey to executive leadership at the time the first serious intake of females were attempting to make their claim for recognition, I witnessed why capable candidates failed. The primary failing was not understanding the rules of the game which are mostly gender neutral.Although written to include any gender seeking success, extra layers are added to the process that specifically address unique challenges faced by females. Quality executive leadership, just as in professional sport, is determined on merit, not gender, colour, ethnicity, or religion. Executives earn their place at the table and are required to function as a team each blending their skill set to the benefit of their sponsors. This skill set is a mix of attitude, discipline, knowhow, understanding the rules of the game, and knowing how the game is played.Written as a novel this self-help manual includes the human content which influences performance and prescribes a form of family management techniques developed during my career and proven very successful.SynopsisThe year is 1990.

Way
First published in 1992, The Way is Edward Goldsmith's magnum opus. In it, he proposes that the stability and integrity of humans depend on the preservation of the balance of natural systems surrounding the individual-family, community, society, ecosystem, and the ecosphere itself. Portraying life processes and ecological thinking as holistic, Goldsmith calls for a paradigm shift away from the reductionist approach of modern science.The basic belief in the whole was at the heart of the worldview of primal, earth-oriented societies, as manifested by the Tao of the ancient Chinese, the R'ta of Vedic India, the Asha of the Avestas, and the Sedaq of the tribal Hebrews. The Way was the path taken to maintain the critical order of the cosmos. Echoing the way of traditional cultures, Goldsmith presents an all-embracing, coherent worldview that promotes more harmonious and sustainable practices capable of satisfying real biological, social, ecological, and spiritual needs.Revised to include a glossary, index, bibliographic notes, and several updated chapters, this is a major work by one of our boldest and most promising thinkers.

Way
The journal Put', or The Way, was one of the major vehicles for philosophical and religious discussion among Russian émigrés in Paris from 1925 until the beginning of World War II. This Russian language journal, edited by Nicholas Berdyaev among others, has been called one of the most erudite in all Russian intellectual history; however, it remained little known in France and the USSR until the early 1990s. This is the first sustained study of the Russian émigré theologians and other intellectuals in Paris who were associated with The Way and of their writings, as published in The Way. Although there have been studies of individual members of that group, this book places the entire generation in a broad historical and intellectual context. Antoine Arjakovsky provides assessments of leading religious figures such as Berdyaev, Bulgakov, Florovsky, Nicholas and Vladimir Lossky, Mother Maria Skobtsova, and Afanasiev, and compares and contrasts their philosophical agreements and conflicts in the pages of The Way. He examines their intense commitment to freedom, their often contentious struggles to bring the Christian tradition as experienced in the Eastern Church into conversation with Christians of the West, and their distinctive contributions to Western theology and ecumenism from the perspective of their Russian Orthodox experience. He also traces the influence of these extraordinary intellectuals in present-day Russia, Western Europe, and the United States. Throughout this comprehensive study, Arjakovsky presents a wealth of arguments, from debates over "Russian exceptionalism" to the possibilities of a Christian and Orthodox version of socialist politics, the degree to which the church could allow its agenda to be shaped by both local and global political realities, and controversies about the distinctively Russian theology of Divine Wisdom, Sophia. Arjakovsky also maps out the relationships these émigré thinkers established with significant Western theologians such as Jacques Maritain, Yves-Marie Congar, Henri de Lubac, and Jean Daniélou, who provided the intellectual underpinnings of Vatican II.
