Over seven chapters, the authors present thought exercises to help readers better understand themselves, find more meaning in what they do and more easily gain the support of others for their projects. The advice provided is relevant for individuals who want to take a step back from their current activities and sources of motivation, and also for a company team or division seeking to reintroduce meaning into its daily assignments.
