	ENWO: Competing In The New Capitalism: How Individuals, Teams and Companies are Creating the New Currency of Wealth Today, every organization is struggling to create the new “currency” of competition. In the early days of capitalism, financial capital mattered most. Today, Larry Miller argues, we have entered a new phase of capitalism and the rules have changed. To be a winner in the tomorrow’s economy, companies must create and build five forms of capital or wealth: social, human, spiritual, financial and process or technology. These are the keys to survival in the new economy. However, most organizations have not yet learned to recognize and manage these new forms of capital.

	NSLDM: Managing with the Wisdom of Love Dorothy Marcic This book explores how the workplace might change if we acknowledge that spiritual values are as important in organizational operations as they are in the lives of those who work there. Speaking directly to those managers who are "trying to figure out why their elaborately planned programs don't work, why morale is low or trust is absent", Marcic offers concrete evidence that breaking spiritual law, in business as elsewhere, elicits predictable results. Arguing that living by the Golden Rule will always bring prosperity and well-being (even in the turbulent business world) Managing With The Wisdom Of Love speaks directly to executives and managers about the ethical and spiritual principles that are indeed key to the long-term success of a company.
