Awake Ethics (Edition 3): A system for aligning your actions with your core intentions

A transformative guidebook that reveals how to improve your performance and relationship to work. Awake Ethics gives rising professionals a powerful common language for understanding the essential soft skills needed to succeed in the workplace. It offers real-life examples and exercises for gaining self-awareness of your behavior, identifying improvement areas, and putting the changes into action.

In the complex world of commerce and business, it's challenging to make genuine connections with others and truly know the impacts of our actions. We often ask ourselves: How can I act in alignment with my values in a given situation despite norms, competition, and pressure? Awake Ethics illustrates how ten ethical principles, when put into practice with individual and team exercises, enable you to make human-centered progress at work and build meaningful connections with others.

Whether interpersonal conflict, miscommunication, ignorance, harm to the environment, or lack of personal health and purpose, stress in the workplace can lead to a negative attitude or decreased motivation. Through the Awake Ethics stories and exercises, you will learn how to see the universal impacts of your actions and discern how to better align your actions with your core intentions for both peace and progress.

The guidebook provides stories from the field, prompts, and exercises to help you improve your mental game at work and cultivate better relationships. This Awake Ethics system is based on an ancient system of philosophy, the Yamas and Niyamas. Interpreted for modern leaders, this system is an integrated approach to leadership, personal growth, and professional development.

This guidebook is Hilary Jane Grosskopf's second interactive guidebook for modern leaders. Learn the language and prepare to lead by example to build a modern tribe of ethical leaders.
