I would like to share a new book The Buddhist CEO by Thane Lawrie (Author) I received in exchange for this review.
The Buddhist CEO has explained living a Buddhist life on a daily basis. The Buddhist CEO has put into perspective the challenges of practicing Buddhism on a daily basis. More than anything The Buddhist CEO has taught a lot about incorporating Buddhist practices into daily life. I highly recommend this book as a must read.
Charlie and I’ve added The Buddhist CEO to our Homeschool Reading list. Through the book Charlie will be able to learn more about Buddhist adding to and enhancing our Bible Studies and teaching us more about Religion which my family doesn’t know much about. My family will be reading the book in the evenings as a family and discussing what we learn bringing us closer together.
About:
Hamish’s chance encounter with a Buddhist monk has a profound effect on his life. He dreams of becoming a monk one day, but he loves his family deeply, and at work his compassionate leadership unexpectedly makes him CEO of a struggling nonprofit. Over the years, he strives to apply Buddhism to everything he does, often seeking peace, solitude, and everyday answers at a Buddhist monastery.
On the face of it, Hamish is successful, and satisfied with his efforts to square the material with the spiritual. But behind the scenes, staff plot against him, and mysterious physical symptoms force a spiritual reckoning. Is it possible for the Buddhist CEO to face these challenges and stay true to his core values and beliefs?

The Buddhist CEO is Thane’s first novel, but he hopes it is the first of many. The book tells a moving tale of a modern man trying to balance his commitment to the ancient tradition of Buddhism with his role of being a modern-day CEO.
