In MYSELF AND OTHER MORE IMPORTANT MATTERS, Britain's greatest management guru gives us at last his thoughts on life's big questions and turning points, mining his own experience to tell us what he's learned along the way -- lessons his father taught him at the Vicarage where he grew up in Kildare; what he learned in Borneo in his days working for Royal Dutch Shell or later in America, where corporate scandals have shaken our understanding of what is ethical and what is acceptable in business; or in Italy, when on a whim he decided to buy and fix up an old house in Tuscanny. hroughout the book, he asks us to look at what we value. Is it money? Family? Time? What is the role of work in our life? What do we find fulfilling? As our working lives blend ever more into the rest of who we are, Charles Handy has emerged as an invaluable social thinker. It is hard to imagine a better or wiser guide to life's big questions.
