Book Summary of Prisoners Of Our Thoughts: Viktor Frankl's Princip...

"Alex Pattakos, Ph.D., a dedicated student of Frankl's thought, was urged by Frankl himself to write this book. In it, Pattakos draws on the entire body of Frankl's work (he wrote more than 30 books), illustrating his philosophy through seven easy-to-understand principles." Through stories, examples, and thought-provoking exercises, Pattakos illustrates how you can apply each of these principles to various work situations and everyday life.

Editorial Reviews

The late Viktor Frankl's hopeful Man's Search for Meaning emerged from his experience in a Nazi concentration camp. With Frankl's blessing, Pattakos, a cofounder of the Innovation Group consultancy and a former professor of public and business administration, applies Frankl's lessons to corporate America's workplaces. Logotherapy, Frankl's therapeutic approach, says we are free to respond to all aspects of our destiny; Pattakos argues that if we all have a will to meaning, then even if we work for unenlightened companies, we can still "connect meaningfully with others" within the workplace. Finding your sense of humor, giving to others and forgiving, and "de-reflecting" (or shifting your focus of attention) are all strategies for connection; one should consider "ten positive things" when losing a job or taking a pay cut. Pattakos ends each chapter with a "Meaning Moment" and a "Meaning Question," which can seem contrived (how exactly is your work like a "mission"?) and a lot of the advice will feel like familiar workplace etiquette that has been rebranded. Still, Pattakos's is a humane approach that allows for purpose in even the most purposeless-seeming environments, which is surely palliative care-if not a cure-for work ruts. The foreword is by The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People author Stephen R. Covey. (Nov.) Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.
