LIVE ONLINE WEBINAR JULY 31ST EXPLORES THE NEW SACRED COMMERCE MODEL THAT INTEGRATES SPIRITUAL GROWTH WITH BUSINESS GROWTH
Mill Valley, CA July 2008
Profit at any cost – we’re starting to see the end results of that business model with sky rocketing gas prices, a collapsing housing market and food shortages throughout the world. Industrial nations hit hard by the recent economic downturn are collectively wondering where it all went wrong. On July 31st, 2008 international best-selling author Ayman Sawaf is offering a different approach to business during his live online webinar, From Emotional Literacy to Emotional Alchemy: A Blueprint for a New Humanity.
Sawaf hit that same wall personally in the early eighties after creating a successful multi-million dollar lighting company only to find himself with a broken marriage and failing health. That was the beginning of a soul-searching process that resulted in the development of a map for building one’s emotional intelligence, a 21 book series for children, several children’s films, as well as guides to help parents raise emotionally literate kids.
With this new emphasis on emotional health, Sawaf next co-authored the international best-selling Executive EQ: Emotional Intelligence in Leadership and Organizations, which was the first book to introduce the application of EQ to business.
The recently published Sacred Commerce: The Rise of the Global Citizen completes the map with the development of emotional alchemy. Looking to the past, Ayman found a different approach to commerce that incorporated spiritual growth and happiness, and surprisingly the civilizations using this holistic model experienced enduring “enlightened” ages rich with culture, commerce, art and prosperity that continue to influence modern society.
“The spiritual return is all about the why,” says Sawaf. “The why is the most important. It cuts to the chase. It reveals our purpose. And when we no longer do business primarily for profit, when we do business because it makes us more loving, caring, and happy, it reveals more of who we are. This is where the practice of Sacred Commerce becomes a spiritual practice. And the positive affect on the greater society is undeniable, you only have to look at the Merchant Priesthood of Egypt, or the Knights Templar of medieval Europe to see how the micro-level of self-growth impacts the macro-level of culture.”
Those who register for the online webinar will also receive a free copy of Sacred Commerce. The webinar will be followed by a QA session where attendees will be able to ask questions.
