For Chopra, whether one owns a company or coaches Little League, good leadership comes from the soul. The author's prominence as a contemporary spiritual teacher would not be possible without business savvy, making him uniquely qualified to address how the sacred can thrive in the secular realm of commerce and management. With exercises in meditation, soul profiles, and group consciousness building, readers are taught to locate and then lead from the soul. It is leading from the soul that is the mark of a "successful visionary," Chopra writes, someone who "makes his or her vision manifest in the world." Chopra's approach is both calm and challenging, particularly when exploring the seductive nature of power and its potential for misuse. Compassionate managers, the author maintains, must move from the needs of the ego to the needs of the group. This volume teaches that influential world figures don't have a monopoly on vision, and anyone can improve the lives of others by merging self-awareness and compassion. In the business of making positive contributions, it is possible to "lead and serve at the same time."

Chopra, internationally famous spiritual leader, celebrity, and best-selling author, now turns his attention to the spiritual qualities he detects in some of the world's most notable leaders, including Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., and the Buddha, with the idea of helping readers to nurture similar qualities in themselves. Chopra's latest book is written with more care and deliberation than some of his recent titles, perhaps reflective of his own experience as a prominent man in a position of some spiritual authority; his charges to readers to take responsibility for themselves and their actions ring true, as do his counsels of "awareness." VERDICT Chopra's writings are necessary for best seller collections in public libraries, and his latest title should reach beyond spiritual readers to a general audience.
