Invisible Leadership: Igniting the Soul at Work

He writes with passion, is articulate and his words ring with truth. What better way to write about the book, than to share the author's words, from Invisible Leadership. "We have only this one thing to do, only this one thing: show the face of who we truly are, that we and others may see the brilliance of that true face and know its redemptive love and wisdom. If we want to know how to do this, how to find and show the brilliant face of our inner truth, the answer is this: want to. We must simply want this more than anything else. That is all. Put nothing else in front of this one desire, and your face will burst like a thousand suns upon this newly happy Earth. It is my hope that something in this book - a word, a phrase, a story - will cause your world to stop, your mind to tilt, and your soul to ignite in silence. I believe that the soul, fully aroused and on fire, irreversibly awake, is the greatest power in the world. If we can hear our soul's silence as loudly as the silence of the high desert at night, then we will know exactly how to bring ourselves and the world of our making into accord with reality, and we will do it with wisdom and love."

As a non-corporate/executive business type, I found this book a revelation. Here we are treated to a pure dose of spirituality colliding with the highly competitive world of business and bottom lines, and the results are surprising, encouraging and worth contemplating. In "Invisible Leadership" we find there is not only a place for strong spiritual/mystical values in the workplace, but a necessity and a natural extension of the spiritual world that we reserve for our private lives. If the world could be according to the author's view, spirituality would not be compartmentalized and hidden, but fearlessly and powerfully applied to every aspect of living, loving and being.The author's wisdom and messages are beautifully illustrated with his own experiences as an executive advisor to business leaders and organizations, and those of this his clients and colleagues.This is a book for anyone seeking a blueprint for integration of spiritual beliefs into the way we approach work, but most importantly for those endowed with the power to lead and affect others in the workplace.

Read this book if you want to get a fresh look on leadership...i love this book...it is rich and witty,raw and sincere.I could not put it down..it was one of those eye openers.

Who is it or what is it that really guides our lives? What propels us forward to do the work that we feel called to do. As lightworkers become more active and take up major roles in society and key positions in governments and large establishments, they can have a profound effect on their environment. Through a collective shift in consciousness, we can create a New World.Robert Rabbin is one person who believes this to be possible and takes spirituality into the workplace, into places one would never expect to find it, such as the boardrooms and corporate world. Robert is also a poet although he would probably be the first to say he doesn't write poetry. His words are inspiring and come from deep personal soul experience, unusual for someone involved in leadership but Robert Rabbin is also a lightworker. In his new book "Invisible Leadership, Igniting the Soul at Work" he talks about a new kind of leadership.Robert invites us to envision a new species of leadership that will serve us by serving the creative power of the universe. He suggests that every organization hire a mystic to serve as Vice President of Consciousness to help in the transition, positions that could be filled with people like Ram Dass, Thich Nhat Hanh, Marianne Williamson and many other great visionaries of our time. He suggests that what is needed is a revolution of consciousness that will evoke the wild heart of ecstatic love and ignite the soul. (How I love his words). He speaks with pure passion that urges you to go to the depths, wake up and speak your truth. The solution he says is to recognize who we are, now, in this moment. How often have we heard those same words but then don't do anything about it. He does not allow us to give up or remain static, instead he advocates that we seek truth all the time, seriously, deeply, profoundly and without surcease and that these are the qualities that all true leaders must embrace. The real leaders are the truth seekers who never stop cultivating awareness, clarity and truth, they are the ones who help bring about the shifts in consciousness. He urges us to keep exploring everything, to touch every grain of sand on a billion beaches of exploration and inquiry. He pushes us further on to the realms we have never dared explore, beyond the boundaries where we tend to give up, on and on exploring the wilderness of self-exploration and developing our passion for life, offering a lubricant for the soul-inspiration. Thank you Robert for stirring the passion and fire in my soul.

As the editor/publisher of New Paradigm Digest, I have read and reviewed many wonderful transformational and socially responsible business books, none more important, compelling and empowering than Invisible Leadership, Robert Rabbin's compassionate gift to the world, not just of business, but to the leader in all of us.In reading most transformational/inspirational business/social books, we gain some new and often useful insights into techniques we may apply to improve personal or organizational performance.In Invisible Leadership, we experience a shift in consciousness, perspective and priorities. Rabbin takes us on a mystical and highly practical journey that wakes and massages a sleeping part of our soul and encourages and supports personal transformation leading toward reconnection and an end to separation. Reconnection with ourselves, each other and the earth.His words speak eloquently to the deep need for personal and global transformation and the absolute necessity of beginning that change from the inside out. His transformational toolbox includes meditation, truth telling, silence and listening. A quieting down so that we may once again connect with what is deepest and truest in ourselves and, in that opening, begin to recover what has been left behind in a world focused almost exclusively on the material.Invisible Leadership celebrates what is most noble and creative in us. It is full of possibility and hope, two vital needs of our time.If we read this book with an open heart and mind and feel its possibilitites growing within us, we may be encouraged, like the Greek goddess Eos, to integrate the spiritual and material worlds in order to create new realities.In the largest sense, what Invisible Leadership affirms to me is that there's really only one of us here and that we truly live in a united state of us. It is in recognizing, feeling, honoring and serving the one in all its beautiful and myriad forms that we feel most alive. Through the process of becoming more open and pourous to the call of serving life, we gift ourselves, our families, friends, communities, the world and future generations with the love and generosity of spirit that Invisible Leaders helps us remember.If enough people from all walks of life read this book, allow its words to penetrate their depths and begin a practice of consistent awareness, we may see an explosion of conscious evolution, the mutation of a happy virus throughout the world that will amaze us. We may see the restoration of nothing less than heaven on earth.Futurist and author Willis Harman once remarked that one of the driving forces of the global mind change he saw coming was a shift from outer to inner authority. It is my prayer that Invisible Leaders help accelerate the shift, act as a cultural trance breaker and illuminate and empower every leader in every field, every leader in training, and students in all disciplines that we may be inspired to take
