Mit diesem Buch hat Richard Barrett eine Arbeit über sein Herzensthema vorgelegt. Ein Buch, in dem er aus seiner jahrelangen Beschäftigung mit Werten schöpft. Man spürt beim Lesen, wie sehr ihm daran liegt, grundlegende Erkenntnisse über Menschen und Organisationen zu formulieren und seine Leser damit zu inspirieren. Das Buch nimmt uns mit und lässt uns eintauchen in unser eigenes Wertesystem: Was ist uns wichtig und warum? Es öffnet uns die Augen für den größeren Zusammenhang: Werte spiegeln unsere Bedürfnisse wider und prägen unsere Entscheidungen und Handlungen. Indem wir verstehen, was uns im Inneren antreibt, können wir uns weiterentwickeln und verändern. Ein wertvoller Anstoß für Menschen auf der Suche nach einem erfüllten Leben. Doch Barrett zeigt auch, dass das gleiche Muster für größere Aggregate gilt: Organisationen auf dem Weg hin zu einer erwünschten Unternehmenskultur und Nationen auf der Suche nach einem guten gesellschaftlichen Miteinander.
