Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
The Old Testament is a source of wisdom that is relevant to contemporary life, both to those with Judeo-Christian backgrounds and to those of other faiths. The dramatic stories found in the ancient text -- illustrating the faith of Job, the courage of David, the compassion of Ruth, the justice of Moses -- reveal the virtues needed to live a meaningful life. Not only that, these stories raise timeless questions about the human condition that today's readers can apply to their professional lives.
This book grew out of the authors' thinking about key issues and questions they face in work and life. Together, the authors represent Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish heritages, and a wide age range.

I actually have the pleasure of taking a graduate level course with one of the authors and 2 of the other 3 are guest speaker in the course.
This well written book will revolutionize you attitude toward work and leadership.
This book is a must read not only for managers and leaders, but for anyone who is looking for a fresh prospective on management, leadership or work-life.

The Wisdom of Solomon at Work was an easy, enjoyable read that stimulated the mind with ancient Biblical stories and applied those stories to rea-life management issues in business.
One of the most interesting components of this book is that all of the authors come from different religious backgrounds (Protestant, Catholic and Jewish). All three united in telling some of the wonderful Old Testament stories of Ruth, Job, Moses, David and Solomon and gave examples of witnesses that used these teachings to improve a workplace.
I thought the book was insightful for those Christians who search for methods to apply their faith in their workplace. Whether you are a Christian or an atheist, this book provides wonderful illustrations of how to become a better manager.
Give it a try and enjoy learning about our God and principles in management.
